After exhaustive googling, I found an article on configuring Syslog on MacOSX 10.4 to accept entries from the network:

Everything seems to be logging just fine now.

Hi everyone... Has anyone else configured Log4J and SyslogAppender for MacOSX 10.4, and if so, what did you have to do in particular to get Syslog to accept logs? I'm fairly certain my Log4J configuration (see below) is setup ok, however, I'm not certain my syslog is. I read in the manpages for syslog that the option "-u" enables UDP, unfortunately, I'm not certain what config file in MacOSX to change to add that option.

Here's my Log4J config:

  <appender name="Syslog" class="org.apache.log4j.net.SyslogAppender">
    <param name="syslogHost" value="localhost" />
    <param name="Facility" value="local0" />
    <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%-4r [%t] (%F:%L) %-5p %c %x - %m%n" />
    </layout>
  </appender>

Thanks!
