No, that means, that you just send all local5.*-Message on A send to B
(where they will treated as local5).
I think, it isn't possible to alter the syslog facility while sending
to a remote syslog.
But on system B, you can grep for the hostname from system A (syslog
writes the hostname directly after date and time).
