This is the log on the mythtv server. I have added separate lines for
local* because I got more logging on the remote server that way. Other than
this file I also have the same configuration on the server as the one on
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Simple_rsyslog_Configuration. The logs in
/var/log/mythtv/ get written to with that configuration.
