greetings,

I have several machines logging to a remote machine
that is running syslogd with the -a option invoked.  

All machines that log to the remote machines have *.* 
@host in /etc/syslog.conf.  The log server is running
with -a hostname.domain.com and seems to be logging
fine - I can generate messages as they would appear
on the server itself.  

What I am interested in is the messages I receive from
syslogd in debugging mode.  I receive a lot of the
follow errors:

rejected in rule 0 due to name mismatch.
rejected in rule 1 due to name mismatch.
rejected in rule 2 due to name mismatch.
accepted in rule 3.

what is happening here?  what is it saying mismatch
then finally receives it on the fourth attempt?

I have tried using syslogd -a IP/32:* as well and
still receive the same messages.  Any information
on this topic would be appreciated.  Thank you
