I use rsync and cron to "backup" the logfiles from an Apache server.
rsync is available on both linux and OSX. You will have to run one
of the servers as a daemon, though. This isn't much of a problem
when you can firewall that port to only the two machines that need
access to it.
If you need or want more details, let me know.
