Look up the man page for syslogd.  There you will find a way to send log
TCP/IP connections to any other computer or device.

Here is a /etc/syslog.conf setting for a computer that keeps its own log AND
sends the messages to another computer.

*.*           -/var/log/messages
*.*           @log.adomain.com


log.adomain.com should just accept and log any thing sent to it from this
machine nd tag it with the id of the sending machine.  You will find that
your devices such as routers, firewalls, etc. will have a setting where you
tell it to send log info to a machine.  You would put log.adomain.com in its
setup.

Now you have one place where all your log info resides even though a hacker
might delete the logs on the main machine.
