Attached is a new init script I wrote. It's based on the existing init.d.Redhat and init.d.Redhat-7.3 scripts. The main deficiency I wanted to correct was that the existing scripts do not properly implement 'reload' by sending a HUP to the running syslog-ng. Other than that I just tried to clean the init script up and make it consistent with other Redhat-style init scripts. I'm calling this script init.d.Fedora since there were already those existing scripts. However, I believe my script should work on any RedHat or Fedora system, so I would ask that you remove the existing scripts. Unless, of course, there's some functionality I'm missing in my script.
