23# The default syslog implementation should make syslog.service a
24# symlink to itself, so that this socket activates the right actual
25# syslog service.
26#
27# Examples:
28#
29# /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service
30# /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service
31#
32# Best way to achieve that is by adding this to your unit file
33# (i.e. to rsyslog.service or syslog-ng.service):
34#
35# [Install]
36# Alias=syslog.service
