Please go through the documentation given on different tutorials sites, one isSyslog Configuration and /etc/syslog.conf

Simpy by editing /etc/syslog.conf file, you will be able to store the log on different location.
Let us know if there is any problem while configuring the things.

Thanks,
Deepak

Try using the below mentioned line on syslog.conf place the machine name on @loghost, restart the syslogd daemon. Comment other lines.
*.* ifdef(`LOGHOST', /var/log/syslog, @loghost)
