Seems like syslog-ng is the way to go, though also looking at OSSIM.

+1 for syslog-NG - lots of customization that can be done with it. You
can for instance create different log files for the various devices on
your network, storage based on date and time stamps i.e have a folder
for 2010, 2011, and inside for Jan, April, May, and inside dates... etc.

Lots of options.

HTH,
