When syslog-ng has been configured to use a program destination, is seems that the program is launched prior to syslog-ng "deamonizing" itself. Normally the code for deamons is something like fork if I am parent process then exit continue code as child process with parent now init (1) Syslog-ng seems to be doing this; start program destinations fork if I am parent process then exit continue code as child process with parent now init (1) when it should be doing fork if I am parent process then exit continue code as child process with parent now init (1) start program destinations If I reload syslog-ng then the program destination has the parent process of syslong-ng which is correct.
