This wiki gives step by step instructions on how to add SysLog Server functionality to your NAS by installing [http://www.balabit.com/network-security/syslog-ng/opensource-logging-system/ syslog-ng]. After completing this modification your NAS can log the System messages from other devices on your network (if they support send to SysLog Server functionality). If installed and configured as per this wiki, syslog-ng will not affect your NAS's internal system logging (klogd and syslogd) which will carry on working as normal. | This wiki gives step by step instructions on how to add SysLog Server functionality to your NAS by installing [http://www.balabit.com/network-security/syslog-ng/opensource-logging-system/ syslog-ng].
