The Syslog default size is 1000 lines. After completion of the 1000 lines will create new
file for storing system log. After completion of the 1000 lines in the second file, the first file is
deleted and creates a new one.
Program syslogd can be started with two options that modifies its behavior. Option "-s"
followed by decimal number set maximal number of lines in one log file. Option "-r" followed
by hostname or IP address enable logging to remote syslog daemon.
In the Linux must be enabled remote logging on the target computer. Typically running
syslogd with the parameter “-r”. On Windows must be installed the syslog server (for example
Syslog Watcher).
For starting syslogd with these options you could modify script "/etc/init.d/syslog" or
add lines "killall syslogd" and "syslogd <options> &" into Startup Script.
