[Alkis Georgopoulos <697387@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe the following line could be changed in the code:

- if [ -z "$SYSLOG" ] || [ "$SYSLOG" = "remote" ]; then
+ if [ "${SYSLOG_HOST-localhost}" != "localhost" ]; then

The weird ${SYSLOG_HOST-localhost} syntax means "if SYSLOG_HOST is set, but empty, then return the string localhost".
So to disable remote logging, one of the following could be used in lts.conf:

SYSLOG_HOST=""
or
SYSLOG_HOST="localhost"

Then there wouldn't be any need to introduce a new variable named
"SYSLOG".
