I would like to change the default log file name of teraterm terminal log. What I would like to do automatically create/append log in a file name like "loggedinhost-teraterm.log"

I found following ini setting for log file. It also uses strftime to format log filename.

    ; Default Log file name. You can specify strftime format to here.
    LogDefaultName=teraterm "%d %b %Y" .log
    ; Default path to save the log file.
    LogDefaultPath=
    ; Auto start logging with default log file name.
    LogAutoStart=on

I have modified it to include date.

Is there any way to prefix hostname in logfile name

Fox eg,

myserver01-teraterm.log
myserver02-teraterm.logfile
myserver03-teraterm.log

I had the same issue, and was able to solve my problem by adding &h like below;

; Default Log file name. You can specify strftime format to here. LogDefaultName=teraterm &h %d %b %y.log ; Default path to save the log file. LogDefaultPath=C:\Users\Logs ; Auto start logging with default log file name. LogAutoStart=on
