Does anyone happen to have a spec for syslogd lying around?
I can't seem to find an RFC on the topic, and would like to
find our more how it recieves data (i.e. does it just simply
receive one UDP datagram per log entry and not reply?  If so,
does anyone have the data structure?)

I can't easily locate source code for syslogd on the net - even
that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Eric
