+ <h1>The syslog service</h1>
+ <p>
+ syslog is a
+ <a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6-rc/s6-rc-compile.html#source">longrun service</a>
+ to support legacy applications
+ that only support logging through a syslog socket.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ It runs an instance of
+ <a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6/s6-socklog.html">s6-socklog</a>
+ with the socket set to <code>/dev/log</code>.
+ The logs are then processed by
+ <a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6/s6-log.html">s6-log</a>
+ (see <a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/logdir.html">logging directory</a>).
