To make a server accept log messages from other machines you need to enable syslog remote reception. This can be done by editing /etc/sysconfig/syslog and adding "-r" to the SYSLOGD_OPTIONS so it looks like this
SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-m 0 -r"
Then restart syslog by doing
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog restart
You should see a message in the log files about remote reception
To make a machine send it's log messages to your log server you need to add an entry to /etc/syslog.conf. Something like
*.info @loghost
should be all that is needed. See the man page for more details (man 5 syslog.conf)
You also need to restart syslog after this change. The procedure is the same as above.

Please note that you _really should_ store log files locally also.
