That strongly suggests configuration problem.  Read carefully manpages
and example configuration files of rsyslogd.  Watch for words:
"accept", "deny", "filter", and "remote".  Check rsyslogd's manpage if
it can show its idea about what finaly configuration it works with (may
be in vein).

Personally, my choice is do-one-thing-and-do-it-good
'inetutils-syslogd'.
