There's no real way to do this. You could write your own custom syslog
client I guess. Or maybe pass the syslog alerts to a local syslog-ng
or rsyslog. You might be able to do that filtering there.
You could also pass the log file you don't want to pass to syslog to a
separate OSSEC installation I guess.
