Is it possible to log apache logs to another computer? Kind of like what syslog allows you to do with normal system logs?

I think the only possibility to do this would be using some kind of syslog-Apache module, like mod-witch: http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/mod-witch/

Of course you could have your /var/log/httpd/ as a nfs (or some other network) mount, but I don't know if that's a reliable way to log, especially if the server is heavily loaded.

google for "mod_spread". Yahoo and some other large websites use it. Building it is a bit painful, but it works well.
