I ran into this same challenge just a few days ago.  I run mostly
CentOS and syslogd is installed by default, but I prefer to run
rsyslog.  Here's a post, 
http://itscblog.tamu.edu/managing-syslog-and-log-forwarding-with-puppet/
,I just did on my blog that has the recipes I used for syslog
management.  Hope that helps
