Named Pipes
This version of syslogd(8) has support for logging output
to named pipes (fifos). A fifo or named pipe can be used
as a destination for log messages by prepending a pipe
symbol (``|'') to the name of the file. This is handy for
debugging. Note that the fifo must be created with the
mkfifo(1) command before syslogd(8) is started.
You just need specify the path to the pipe in syslog.conf.
