I have a server (e7) and a remote machine (xilinx).
Remote log messages are sent to port 514 and accepted by the server. I can see 
them in the relevant log files (messages, cron etc.)

in /etc/rsyslog.conf I have

module(load="imudp")
input(type="imudp" port="514")
module(load="imtcp")
input(type="imtcp" port="514")

So the remote messages are processed same as the local ones. syslog shows:
        Feb 22 10:38:10 xilinx systemd[1]: Starting Stop ureadahead data 
collection...
        Feb 22 10:38:10 xilinx systemd[1]: Started Stop ureadahead data 
collection.

However I do not see the remote messages in the journal (or maybe I am not 
using the correct journalctl command?).

I tried using the following, hoping it will output to the journal:

module(load="omjournal")
ruleset(name="remote") {
        action(type="omjournal")
}
input(type="imtcp" port="514" ruleset="remote")

and I could now see the messages in the journal BUT they do not include the 
correct source hostname:
        2025-02-22T10:39:57+11:00 e7.eyal.emu.id.au systemd[1]:[2445734]:  
Starting Update APT News...
I want
        2025-02-22T10:39:57+11:00 xilinx systemd[1]: Starting Update APT News...

'e7.eyal.emu.id.au [2445734]' is the hostname and pid of the rsyslogd service 
on the SERVER.

In /var/log/syslog I see these message:

Without ruleset (correct hostname service[pid[):
        Feb 22 10:38:10 xilinx systemd[1]: Starting Stop ureadahead data 
collection...
        Feb 22 10:38:10 xilinx systemd[1]: Started Stop ureadahead data 
collection.

With ruleset (incorrect hostname):
        Feb 22 10:39:57 e7 systemd[1]:[2445734]: Starting Update APT News...
Same line on xilinx syslog is
        Feb 22 10:39:57 xilinx systemd[1]: Starting Update APT News...

I want both the syslog and the journal to at least identify the source hostname 
correctly, in syslog and in the journal.

TIA
