Hi Alex,

There's an APT repository for Debian based systems, see: https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng#installation-from-binaries

After that you should check out the Administration Guide:

https://www.syslog-ng.com/technical-documents/list/syslog-ng-open-source-edition/3.36

Peter Czanik's syslog-ng blog contains small step-by-step tutorials, for example Splunk HEC:

I hope this can you get started.

Cheers,

Szilard
