For the syslog-ng package there are only the man pages syslog-ng.conf.5 syslog-ng.8 The html documentation which was part of the 2.x packages is not available in the source packages for 3.0.1 for some reason. If you want more docs, you should take a look onto the homepage of the project: http://www.balabit.com/support/documentation/?product=syslog-ng For the eventlog package there is documentation in the source package, but it's not installed by default. Since I only needed the package to get syslog-ng running, I didn't look into it. Download the source and look into the doc subdir.
