hi fritz,

    on your syslog server inside /etc/syslog.conf

     facility.level                    /path/logfile


    for every remote host inside your /etc/syslog.conf

    facility.level                    @ip_address_of_your_syslog_server

    aside from securing your log files, i cant teach you (confidential :->) how to 
make your syslog server becoming a
stealth server... meaning it cannot ping, traceroute, fingerprinting nor port scan by 
an attacker or what i mean is
that, it doesnt exist that there is a syslog server on your network from the public 
network point of view but im still
using a public ip address for my syslog server and all remote host is logging their 
logs to my syslog server without
using any complex tools nor design. :->

fooler.
