What sort of logging in particular?  While there are some standards for
logging under Linux (such as the use of /var/log for system logs), and
some logging is bundled through, say, sysklogd, logging of itself isn't
a centralized system function.

For general system logs, see general system documentation, including
Unix and Linux references such as Nemeth et al, Frisch, and Welsh.

For specific application logging, see application documentation, eg:
apache, diald, etc.

For security, refer to a security site describing what sorts of things
you might want to look for.
