Change syslog tag

[BDiE8VNy]

Hello,

Syslog messages send by ZABBIX Server and Agent can not be parsed correctly because the syslog tag includes a blank:

- "Zabbix Server"
- "Zabbix Agent"

That results for instance in a syslog tag "Zabbix" and a message "Agent (daemon)[32614]: zabbix_agentd listener started"

Is there any way to change the syslog tag?

Thanks in advance

Fixing the files below solves the problem.

[root@rpmbuild SOURCES]# grep -hom1 "\..*[ch]" *[ch].patch
./include/common.h
./src/zabbix_proxy/proxy.c
./src/zabbix_server/server.c
./src/zabbix_agent/zabbix_agent.c
./src/zabbix_get/zabbix_get.c
./src/zabbix_sender/zabbix_sender.c
[root@rpmbuild SOURCES]#

After applying the following patches (r)syslog is able to identify the 'syslogtag' correctly

[root@rpmbuild SOURCES]# cat *[ch].patch
