I told my switch to send its logs to my centralized (r)syslog
server. Now, its log entries look like

Oct  6 02:14:03 2013-10-06 02: 14:14 10.0.0.3 61565 The switch has
learned a new MAC address bc:5f:f4:54:d7:8d, vid:10, interface:port 1.

As opposite to

Oct  5 18:54:45 monkey System SYSTEM:#011User [admin] failed to log in.

which means I cannot get the *proper* %HOSTNAME% to be used with

$template 
DailyPerHostLogs,"/var/log/syslog/%HOSTNAME%/messages_%$YEAR%-%$MONTH%-%$DAY%.log"

i.e., it thinks 2013-10-06 is the hostname. Since I cannot edit the
way the log is being spit out by the switch, is there any kind of
postprocessing I can do at the syslog server side?
