yes, snort supports syslog logging.. if you want to get to a remote syslog, 
then you need to configure your local syslog.conf to direct the particular 
log facility that snort is using to a remote server..

With syslog applications never specify where things get logged.. they 
merely specify a facility and level.. where it goes is entirely up to the 
configuration of syslog itself.

This is great because you can redirect output for all your apps that use 
syslog without having to reconfigure each and every app.. it's bad because 
you have to learn how to use syslog, but that's more-or-less unavoidable in 
unix systems.
