+# The default syslog implementation should make syslog.service a
+# symlink to itself, so that this socket activates the right actual
+# syslog service.
+#
+# Examples:
+#
+# /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service
+# /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service
+#
+# Best way to achieve that is by adding this to your unit file
+# (i.e. to rsyslog.service or syslog-ng.service):
+#
+# [Install]
+# Alias=syslog.service
+#
+# See https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog for details.
