I guess you were referring to nsyslogd by Darren Reed:
06/01/1999 - Darren Reed, the author of IP Filter, announced the release of
Nsyslog, a syslog implementation that
* supports TCP connections
* can be used with SSL to encrypt delivery of syslog messages
* can be used with libwrap and /etc/hosts.{allow,deny} to only accept log
connections from given hosts
* allows you to set a desired fsync rate for given log files
