Howdy,

FWIW, I'm using journalctrl.

My sbbs.ini has:
; Defaults to using the USER facility.
        LogFacility = 1
; syslog identity to use (when daemonized)
        LogIdent = synchronet

And then to see synchronet logs, I use:
journalctl -f --since "today" -tsynchronet

I dont recall if I did anything on the systemd side (dont remember), and havent figured out how to use journalctl with any anger - but the command above gets me what I need...
