CFMX7 with syslog, or log collection/rotation

Question

The end goal is to collect logs from all 5 production
ColdFusion boxes in one place, rotated daily, so we can analyze it
without hopping between servers. To that end I'm wondering whether
anyone has gotten logging against syslog to work in the wild. This
is the way I've done these things for other software packages, so
it's naturally the first thing that comes to mind. However, If
there is some other way to accomplish this that does not involve
collecting the data in one place with syslog, let me know. I'm at
the point where I'm thinking about rolling up scripts to do this
but it seems common enough an interest that someone might have
already accomplished it.
Failing that, if anyone knows best practice for getting a
typical log rotater working against the ColdFusion logs, that would
also be helpful. I'd like logs rotated by date, not by size, unless
logs for one day go over the file size limit. We're running CFMX7
on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
I've looked in the knowledge base and searched the web and
this forum, but beyond a statement in the docs that you can send
some messages to syslog there's no further information. The
definition of "some", and some knowledge of what facility ID you
need to use with syslog to collect the data, is not to be
found.
