We are using a single box in a RH 7.2 cluster for syslog. I have all 
machines logging to this machine correctly, but one problem.

The syslog messages are showing up as follows:
Jan  1 13:28:20 node-2 nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded 
Jan  1 13:28:20 node-2 nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded 
Jan  1 13:28:21 node-2 portmap: portmap shutdown succeeded 

This problem is that we have 6 racks and each rack has a node-2. We have no
way of knowing which node-2 logged the message.
The FQDN would be node-2.rack1.mydomain.com

(some @#@*-4-brains VAR did the initial config and now it would be too much work
to change)

Why is syslog not logging the FQDN which is supposed to by default?
(You have to strip otherwise with -s)

nsswitch.conf is set to resolve hosts only from files.

I can configure syslogd to log only IP addresses but this is undesireable.

Does anyone have any tricks I can try???


Thanks,
Chuck
