syslog() under NT

I'm trying to port some UNIX-based code to NT using the cygwin32/gcc
system.  The code calls the syslog() routine to do most of its logging.
It compiles fine, but of course when it runs all the logging information
disappears.

The question is, do I need to run a "syslogd" daemon on the NT system?
Or does the cygwin32 API layer for syslog() translate the calls into
some equivalent Windows-based logging facility?

Thanks ...
