I believe you can change where those messages go by editing your 
/etc/syslog.conf file, specifically these lines (found at the bottom):

daemon.*;mail.*;\
        news.err;\
        *.=debug;*.=info;\
        *.=notice;*.=warn       |/dev/xconsole

I have never tried redirecting those messages to an SSH terminal, though.  I 
think it would need to be bound to a named pipe in order for syslog to send 
messages to it.  Again, I've never tried it so I could be very wrong about that.
