[squid-users] SQUID syslog to rsyslog server (v2.7 Windows)

We've added in the two lines below to the 'squid.conf' file and restarted the service, but syslog traffic does not appear to be currently flowing:
(The hashed out line was what was previously being used with data successfully being logged to a local file.)

   access_log udp://10.203.193.25:514 squid
   access_log syslog:local0.info squid
   #access_log c:/ClientSiteProxy/var/logs/Access.log

Are these the correct command directives and in the correct format?

There is reference to there being a syslog 'facility' which we've arbitrarily picked 'local0'  However cannot find anything in the reference that states the meaning of each of the facility options.

Thanks in advance
