Try the syslogd man page (man 8 syslogd on my Debian Linux box).

In an unusual turn of events, the man page is well written and
informative.  There is a whole section titled "Support for Remote
Logging" that will take you through changes to the configuration file,
which port must be open, and which flag to pass to the syslogd daemon
when it starts.
