Code:
*.info /logs/rsyslog/current.log

Are you using syslogd or rsyslogd? For syslogd, you add "-r' to the SYSLOGD_OPTIONS in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.

For rsyslogd you need to uncomment the following lines in rsyslogd.conf
Code:
$ModLoad imudp
$UDPServerRun 514

and add list of permitted hosts e.g.
Code:
$AllowedSender UDP, 127.0.0.1, *example.com

You also need to open up any firewall that is in place on the log server for 514/UDP.
