On 5.3, I have following in rc.conf:
  syslogd_flags="-a 192.168.123.0/24 -b 192.168.123.254"

on the machine that has IP 192.168.123.254.
It serves a cluster of 192.168.123.X with X = 1 to 7

/etc/syslog.conf on the 192.168.123.X PCs has:
   *.*     @192.168.123.254

and all syslog messages arrive on 192.168.123.254 and are stored there.
