Encrypted syslog over network

Hi:

I was thinking, is there any way of secure syslogging to a different 
server?

AFAIK syslog uses udp/514 and I would like to monitor a number of remote 
hosts.

Now, for privacy and security reasons, I would like that the syslog 
messages are sent encrypted. This may require pre-shared keys as the udp 
protocol does not include a handshake and key exchange.

Any solution for this? syslog-ng doesn't seem to include such feature.

Thanks, Erik
