syslog recommendations?
I'm looking for a few F/OSS syslog programs -- one easy to use (sort of like Kiwi syslog) and another that's much more scalable and would let me, say, aggregate logs from lots of different boxes and maybe even do other sorts of cool things (find patterns, etc). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
