I don't think there's a source modification needed for syslog-ng. One can specify $LEVEL in a template() clause in a destination section. E.g.
destination d_file { file("/var/log/messages"); template("$HOUR:$MIN:$SEC $TZ $HOST [$LEVEL] $MSG\n"); template_escape(no); }
(This is taken straight from the syslog-ng documentation in /usr/share/doc/packages/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.pdf.
Gosh! I neglected looking in there. I thought the man page was complete! :-/
I would add some more information like $DATE and $FACILITY. ;-)
$LEVEL expands to the name of the level and not to a number, though.
At least, it is something. I have seen, elsewhere, vievers that could sort on the priority, display in different colours, or simply hide lower priority messages as the user chooses. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
