Hi,
there is an other php tool which is not yet released, but you can try
out the cvs version.

There are a lot of more features than php-syslog-ng...
- web-based configuration of the syslog-server[s]
- manage more than one central server
- manage more than one table / database
- multi-language
- database backend can be: dBase,FrontBase,InterBase,Informix,Mini
SQL,Microsoft SQL Server,MySQL,Oracle 7/8/9,ODBC (Open Database
Connectivity),PostgreSQL,SQLite,Sybase but MySQL is only tested at this
time
- extended search options like timeline with PRCE over all tables and
all databases on each log-server
- negation in searching and filtering
- filtering the view (e.g you dont want to see info messages)
- save/reload searchoptions 
- control syslog: start/stop/restart/reload
- graphical statistiks
- statistic which shows you grouped messages from last hour/day/week....
- user / group Backend can be database/Ldap
- authentification: LDAP, database, IMAP and radius
- permission managment
- colors of messages can be defined
- ...

The project is only a module of the unattended-gui system wich can be
found on sf.net:
unattended-gui.sf.net

There is only few documentation at this time....
http://unattended.technikz.de/index.php/Module:syslog_ng

I hope for some testers because the first release will be placed in the
next 3 Months with unattended-gui 0.3. But you can use the
unattended-gui also for only doing the syslog-ng stuff because it is
unitised.

Please let me know if you need a demo version.
