Managing logs

We use syslog-ng here; very robust application (which by the way looks
like will be the new default logger for fedora and then presumably
redhat); for reviewing and parsing, we use in house developed scripts
(mostly awk and grep) as well as logwatch (ran on the syslog server
instead of each client)

Subject: Managing logs

General Question:

I have a combination of RHEL 4 and Centos servers.  Currently I'm 
getting e-mail from logwatch each morning on each machine.  I'm sure 
there is a better way of managing and viewing system logs. Can anyone 
suggest a centralized method of gathering/formating system log 
information?  I have looked at systems like nagios but they seem like a 
lot of work to get up and running.

Thanks.

Jim
