I found and old message asking this question, but not a full answer.

Is there anyway to log (all or some) vera events to a remote syslog server?

well, there’s [tt]logger[/tt]. I haven’t tried on Vera; but if you could try things like:

tail -f /var/log/cmh/LuaUPnP | logger -p luup.info

or maybe:

while true; do (tail -f /var/log/cmh/LuaUPnP | logger -p luup.info); done

to keep logging after Luup rotates the logfile. In any case, you would have to first setup [tt]/etc/syslog.conf[/tt] to route messages to the remote server.
