heh, sorry. the man page for syslog.conf is pretty helpfull for
setting this stuff up. the command to read it is "man 5 syslog.conf"
so that was short hand. it'll show you how to setup rules for various
log messages and how to route them to different log files(or syslogd
servers). i suspect you want a log file that'll just contain these
UDP and TCP connection attempts...
