Many modern sed implementations support extended regular expressions (POSIX ERE) via the -E option . This is not a powerful as perl and does not support named capture groups, but should be sufficient for your requirement.
Using ERE with the sed -n option (to suppress automatic printing of pattern space) we can do:
\1 in the replace part of the substitution is referring to the first capture group the same as $1 in perl.
Sorry I don't know of a good source to learn all this stuff, I just picked it up over the years of using these products. Perhaps try searching for "learning regex" or "regular expression examples" using your favorite search engine.
I did a quick search myself and came across this quite nice regex cheat sheet, it seems to cover a lot of features and is fairly easy to use Regex Cheat Sheet

syslog
SYSLOG(8) System Logging SYSLOG(8)NAME
syslog-ng, syslogd
DESCRIPTION
There are different syslog daemon implementations supported as the system's syslog service, currently syslogd, syslog-ng and rsyslogd
The first installed daemon activates itself for the syslog service. Starting with openSUSE-11.2, it is rsyslogd, before it was syslog-ng.
But this depends on the software selection during the installation.
The name of the daemon used as syslog service is specified in the
SYSLOG_DAEMON variable in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
The yast2 sysconfig module provides a comfortable way to switch to another installed daemon and restart the service.
The /etc/init.d/syslog init script is able to handle all supported daemons.
