> Hello,
> I send Tomcat logs to a remote rsyslog server via a SyslogAppender.
> My appender configuration is the following :
> <appender name="rtAppenderSyslog" class="org.apache.log4j.net.SyslogAppender">
>   <param name="SyslogHost" value="xx.xx.xx.xx"/>
>   <param name="Facility" value="local3"/>
>   <param name="FacilityPrinting" value="true"/>
>   <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
>     <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} [%t] %-5p (%c{5}:%L) - %m%n" />
>   </layout>
> </appender>
> The rsyslog server receives correctly the Tomcat logs but the rsyslog $hostname variable contains the IP address of the Tomcat server.
> Could you tell me if it's possible to get the Tomcat server hostname instead of its IP address ?
> Thanks in advance for your support.
> Regards
