Logging to a remote syslog server

I have just set up a syslog server, and I want to set up a couple of my Arch boxes to log their output to that server.
The information on logging seems quite thin for Arch; I can't seem to come across any valuable information on setting this up.
Since systemd has replaced the need for syslog, I would like to set up my systemd journal to send log information to my server instead of trying to setup (r)syslogd or anything like that.

Where should I start for configuring systemd journal logging, especially for logging to a remote syslog server?
Thanks.

Something like this?

man systemd-journal-gatewayd

Arch + dwm   •   Mercurial repos  •   Surfraw

Re: Logging to a remote syslog server

systemd-journal-gatewayd uses http. I'm not sure if that works with syslog (syslogd on FreeBSD, in my case), which uses UDP.
