 Hi Steve,
 Many thanks for your response.
 I will be reading the presentation and the examples in the tarball and
 go from there for implementing my processing plugin.
 Regarding the logging to disk on the central server:
 I have node names set up for both servers now and am now getting the
 following behaviour:
    On the client server I can see the events being prefixed with
 node=Elephant in the log on that server.
    On the central server I can see that local events are being
 prefixed with node=Mongoose.
    However, events that were sent to the central server by the client
 server show up in the central server's log with
    node=localhost.localdomain. So it seems that the node information
 gets lost between the client and central server?
 Would you have any idea why the node information is lost?
 Many thanks,
 Wouter 
Check /etc/audisp/audispd.conf on your client.
Look at the  line with "name_format=" and it probably says "hostname"
(case insensitive).
Test this by checking "% hostname" command on your client.
See the audispd.conf man page for more info.
