First, reconfigure the normal syslog daemon by rewriting rules in /etc/syslog.conf. Ipchains writes 'info' messages, for instance. Secondly, use a package like logcheck--er, now it's called LogSentry, but it's still Open Source (http://www.psionic.com)--to scan, extract and mail 'interesting' log entries to you on a regular (cron) basis.
