Because of the simplicity of the syslog protocol, you can just use
UDPServer with a protocol derived from DatagramProtocol. You just need
to overload datagramReceived to do something sensible with the log line
received.
In short:
class SyslogInput(protocol.DatagramProtocol):
def datagramReceived(self, data):
print "I have received %r" % data
service = internet.UDPServer(514, SyslogInput())
