According to the info, internal() should log all messages syslog-ng
generates, but it doesn't on my system... And it's not possible to

You were right, i'm using UDP now, and messages from my client are
placed in /var/log-ng :) However, it doesn't create log-files with the
hostname in it, it just puts them in the existing logs of the server...
