I vaguely remember that we had security issues when we started using the
SyslogAppender. Make sure you have the privileges to connect to it via a

Most C/C++ apps use the syslog system call, but I believe log4j uses a TCP
socket
to talk to the syslog daemon.

No, I can authoritatively state that log4j uses UDP.

You have to enable the syslog deamon to accept network (remote) connections. (It's the -r flag for the vanilla syslog daemon. For syslogng you need to open a UDP channel.
