I thought about that - people other than me set up most of the machines and 
this may or may not be easy for them to do in practice. I'm sure you've seen 
how easy it is for otherwise smart people to royally screw up anything with 
ssh in it's name...

Just keeping my options open, maybe there's something better suited to what I 
need than vanilla syslog-ng
