There is a very good article on how to create a Debian Syslog server at
http://www.aboutdebian.com/syslog.htm however some of the files it
mentions are not contained in a SUSE Linux 10.1 environment. Can you
please adopt the information here for SUSE Linux 10.1. Basically all I
need is for a application to listen to port UDP/514 and continue to
write the captured information to a file.  I am only interested in
creating the listening server as I have no problems with the client
sending the traffic to UDP/514 and I have Linux display vehicle courtesy
of  kiwi log veiwer for Linux

You may be wondering why I don't just use Ethereal Network Analyser -
Its a great tool, however it has a bug that severely hampers its
usefulness as a Syslog Server.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=191397 - If you are also
desperate as I am, and I have seen many administrators desperate not
have to maintain an MS-Windows PC to Provide Syslog data. You can vote
for the bugfix for Ethereal so we can enjoy the other great things in
this application 
On a good note there is a Syslog or WIFI Management Linux solution at
http://manageengine.adventnet.com/products/firewall/index.html and
http://manageengine.adventnet.com/products/wifi-manager/index.html
respectfully however these application, whilst very good do not accept
all data formats send to UDP/514 by your IDS/IDP/Router
