Yes, you need the rsyslog package installed:
[1:root@bb8 rsyslog 148]$ rpm -qf
/etc/rsyslog.conf
rsyslog-8.38.0-1.fc27.x86_64
I have all my DHCP logging go to a separate file. To do this,
comment out your log-facility in dhcpd.conf
and add this just after the '#### RULES ####' comment in
/etc/rsyslog.conf:
if $programname == 'dhcpd' then {
action(type="omfile" file="/var/log/dhcpd.log")
# if $syslogseverity >= 4 then stop # warning
# if $syslogseverity >= 5 then stop # notice
if $syslogseverity >= 6 then stop # info
if $msg contains 'incoming update is less critical
than outgoing update' then stop
}
Restart rsyslog "systemctl restart rsyslog.service".
Any severity greater than 'info' will also be logged to
/var/log/messages.
Since you're adding a new log file, edit /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog
and add /var/log/dhcpd.log.

Theres the following statement in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf :-
# Use this to send dhcp log messages to a different log file
(you also
# have to hack syslog.conf to complete the redirection).
log-facility local7;
I cannot seem to find syslog.conf or rsyslog.conf in /etc
There is a /usr/share/doc/sudo/examples/syslog.conf
documentation file but there are no syslog or syslog services.

Do you have the rsyslog package installed? That's what provides
/etc/rsyslog.conf. The file
/usr/share/doc/sudo/examples/syslog.conf is provided by the sudo
package.
