Ok, here's something that has me stumped.

I have a syslog server that collects logs from various networking gear.
Occassionally, syslog messages will have leading dots in front of them.
(like ".Dec 15 ...." instead of "Dec 15 ....") I think that has something
to do with the time on the originating device not matching up with the
time on the syslog server, but I cannot find any reference to this in any
documentation.

Anyone have a clue?
