I use Netconsole for routine monitoring.

You don't want to hassle with netcat.
Many sysloggers can log udp
I use syslog-ng. Excerpts from configuration:
source netlog {
udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(4450));
};
destination netlog
{
file("/var/log/netlog");
};
log
{
source(netlog);
destination("netlog");
flags(final);
};
