While I have not had the opportunity to test this yet Terry Burton of http://blog.terryburton.co.uk has a very simple solution to the issue of getting the Apache access_logs to be set via syslog. By default Apache only seems to support sending the Error_Log using Syslog.
The following line can be added to the Apache conf file
CustomLog “|/usr/bin/logger -t apache -i -p local6.notice” combined
(The syslog conf file will also be required to be updated accordingly)
