Even though I have the permissions set as something else it still creates files with 600 permission instead of 644 like it's instructed. (This is for any file it creates.) Though syslog-ng will create the file in the correct directories. I am thoroughly confused and would appreciate any help. Thank You.
unfortunately, syslog-ng doesn't honor explicit mode specifications in a way, that would override the umask in your startup-script or inherited from the parent. You can set useful modes on logfiles only if you are willing to loosen your restrictive umask to something like 022.
