This also means that applications that read log files and act on them (like sshguard) \
need to be dealt with.

Anyone have an example of how to get the new logging system to actually write out \
logs? (Maybe something in /Library/Preferences/Logging/Subsystems/ ?) Ideally, I'd \
like to put all logs from one application in a file (ie sshd logs into one file, \
postfix logs into another file).

I had some custom syslog logging that I pulled forward into asl config (from \
syslog.conf to /etc/asl.conf to /etc/asl/net.geekalir.foo files) that I guess I need \
to modify once again if I want it to keep working.
