 Could you try changing those hostnames to *only* the hostname, without
 the domain name that syslogd recognizes as 'LocalDomain'?  It seems that
 syslogd strips the local domain before matching the hostname the log
 line was received from against any of the hostnames defined in
 syslog.conf.
 
 G'luck,
