  32 # The default syslog implementation should make syslog.service a
  33 # symlink to itself, so that this socket activates the right actual
  34 # syslog service.
  35 #
  36 # Examples:
  37 #
  38 # /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service
  39 # /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service
  40 #
  41 # Best way to achieve that is by adding this to your unit file
  42 # (i.e. to rsyslog.service or syslog-ng.service):
  43 #
  44 # [Install]
  45 # Alias=syslog.service
