I tried that. It doesn't work either. syslog never binds to Port 514. Anyone knows why this is?

You didn't mention if you were using F8 or another version. In F8 the file to edit is /etc/sysconfig/rsyslog. In other it is /etc/sysconfig/syslog and I modified mine and restarted.

It works as expected....

[root@f8 sysconfig]# netstat -nap | grep 514
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:514 0.0.0.0:* 2527/rsyslogd udp 0 0 :::514 :::* 2527/rsyslogd

    Just a guess here...but shouldn't it be

    SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-r -m 0"
