#51 Hostname Truncated - Ver 1.10
Following was posted to the msyslog-users list on 7/9/2003:
I found a situation in Ver 1.10 where messages received
via im_tcp had the originating hostname truncated when
the message was written to a file via
om_classic. This results from a situation in
src/modules/im_tcp.c (HEAD, Rev 1.50) where the
originating hostname is stored in m->host, but its
length is not stored in m->hlen. The following patch
resolves this problem.
