+        CouchDB's ``syslog`` only knows how to use UDP logging. Please ensure that your
+        ``syslog`` server has UDP logging enabled.
+
+        For ``rsyslog`` you can enable the UDP module `imudp` in ``/etc/rsyslog.conf``::
+
+            # provides UDP syslog reception
+            module(load="imudp")
