Just to follow up, I got it working! Thanks!

By itself, no, but by using a similar method for logging to a database you
can.
create a script to call snmptrap (/opt/scripts/sendtraps):
#!/bin/bash
while read LINE
do
snmptrap .... $LINE
done
then set up a destination in the syslog-ng.conf file:
destination traps { program("/opt/scripts/sendtraps"); };
Send whatever you want through the destination, filtering it as need.d

Thanks. I have not had a chance to mess with any of this yesterday, but
hopefully today I will be able to.
Do you also know if you can have Syslog-NG send out SNMP alerts if there
are certain events in logs?

Have you checked to see if the SYSLOG traffic is hitting the server? A
tcpdump should show the traffic.
Other then the MySQL logging, I'm not doing that much different with my
config - I've used remote logging in the past.
Try running syslog-ng in debug mode (syslog -d) to see if the traffic
comes through and gets filtered.
