+Tiny Syslog Server in Python.
+
+This is a tiny syslog server that is able to receive UDP based syslog
+entries on a specified port and save them to a file.
+That's it... it does nothing else...
+There are a few configuration parameters. These can be set via env vars.
+Usage: sudo ./syslog_server.py
