Jim-

Sure enough, my workstation is trying to log everything to the server - 
/etc/syslog.conf tells it to - but the log files don't show up on the 
server AFAICS. When I looked up the man entries for syslog and services, I 
thought that all I could do was kill syslogd. To restart it, I initially 
had to use "/etc/init.d/sysklogd start" - which got me right back where I 
started from. So, I ran "ps xa|grep log" and saw that it was running 
"/sbin/syslogd", then "/etc/init.d/sysklogd stop" and stopped it, which 
allowed me to start it with "/sbin/syslog -r". Now I just need to figure 
out how to make it start that way every time...

On SuSE10 it's in /etc/sysconfig/syslog
The line goes "-r SOME-IP"

Q: this causes the local SuSE10 to send log to the machine specified.
How does one enable the remote machine to receive this log?
