[rsyslog] Remote loggin to 2 rsyslog servers but with "priority"

[Beat Meier]

Thanks Rainer

That's exactly what I looked for.
One more question
I use templates of the form:

$template DynFileAuth,"/var/log/%HOSTNAME%/auth.log"
$template DynFileSyslog,"/var/log/%HOSTNAME%/syslog"
$template DynFileCron,"/var/log/%HOSTNAME%/cron.log"

How can I use variables to replace the path /var/log
So I can use something like:

path="/var/log"
$template DynFileAuth,"$path/%HOSTNAME%/auth.log"
$template DynFileSyslog,"$path/%HOSTNAME%/syslog"
$template DynFileCron,"$path/%HOSTNAME%/cron.log"

Is the template way the only one?
I think that template is expanded at runtime, isn't it?
Is there a variable method that is expanded when daemon starts, for 
efficiency?
I have nothing found in the wiki with search, no in the docu index, nor 
the man page of rsyslog.conf.

Greetings and thanks

Beat
