Using Node variables with Syslog

I have read a couple threads regarding syslog variables, but I have been unable to find my answer. Like other posters have said the hostname is not presented with the name unless the ip of that host is in DNS and I would like to get the name in my alerts.

I have also read that in version upgrades after that post; variables from the nodes could be used. I have read the most recent Admin Guide and tried using the node variables ${NodeName}, but have not been able to get it working. Is there something that I have missed?

Thanks,

Bret
