Log::Dispatch::Syslog uses the standard unix syslog mechanism which
talks to the local syslogd daemon (see "man 3 syslog". You can
configure syslogd to forward messages to other hosts via
/etc/syslog.conf, like this:
local3.* @my.syslog.host.com
That's the typical unixy way to do it. I don't see any reason why you
couldn't write a Net::Syslog appender. The only reason it hasn't been
done is that nobody's needed to, given the above mechanism.
