Environment

Novell Sentinel RD
Novell Log Manager 1.1
SLES Collector 6.1r3
Syslog Connector 6r8

Situation

Sentinel and Log Manager collector plugins for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server do not properly parse events when the hostname includes a hyphen.

Resolution

A current workaround exists only to rename the host to exclude a hyphen.  

This is resolved in Sentinel 6.1r11
