DD-wrt has a logging function which I am unable to make work per: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Logging_with_DD-WRT since it apparently needs syslogd which has been replaced with syslog-ng if I understand what I've found.

That page is referring to syslogd on the dd-wrt system, as far as I can tell. It mentions in passing that if you want to send logs to a remote host, that the remote host needs to be running a syslog daemon, but makes no mention of what daemon that should be. Any syslog daemon on the remote host would suffice. I have rsyslog at home with dd-wrt logging there.




       Ok, I guess I didn't understand everything I read. It looks like
       I have rsyslog running.

           [bobg@box7 ~]$ service rsyslog status
           Redirecting to /bin/systemctl  status rsyslog.service
           rsyslog.service - System Logging Service
                  Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service;
           enabled)

                 Process: 865 ExecStartPre=/bin/systemctl stop
           systemd-kmsg-syslogd.service (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
                Main PID: 908 (rsyslogd)
                  CGroup: name=systemd:/system/rsyslog.service
                      └ 908 /sbin/rsyslogd -n -c 5

       However it says the log data should be sent to
       /tmp/var/log/messages  which does not exist. Of course there is
       /var/log/messages but I see nothing there. I guess the question
       then becomes should I create that file?

       Bob
