Thats in the syslogd man-page: 

<snip>
  -r     This  option  will  enable  the facility to receive
         message from the network using an  internet  domain
         socket  with  the syslog service (see services(5)).
         The default is to not receive any messages from the
         network.
<snap>

On da Cisco do a:

<snip>
service timestamps log datetime
..
logging trap <level>
logging source-interface <interface>
logging <host-1>
logging <host-2>
<snap>

and next time plz RTFM.

regards,

  Arnd
