Most Tardis Linux machines are set to send log messages to the log host (currently piper) for easy consultation and to provide log summary emails. The summary emails are compiled by logcheck and boring messages can be ignored by adding new patterns to the local-* files in /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server. These are sent to the sysmans-logs alias. Separate emails are provided for mail by pflogsumm, which are sent to postfix-logs.
To make syslog send logs to the log host, put
*.* @loghost
into /etc/syslog.conf.
To get syslog to accept remote logs, you need to edit /etc/init.d/sysklogd.
