[syslog-ng] ng-syslog logging in a stealth mode

[Jason Haar]

I missed the beginning of the thread - but psyslogd may be what you are 
after.

It's a sniffer that runs in promiscuous mode and listens exclusively for 
UDP syslog packets. It is basically a syslog daemon that doesn't need an 
IP address. Perfect to install on IDS servers that are monitoring 
traffic from - say - a DMZ. Get the other DMZ hosts to support syslog 
and to send their syslog events to 255.255.255.255 - and psyslogd will 
catch it. Any hacker won't be able to tell where it is :-)
