Hi,
I have compiled syslog-ng 3.0.7 successfully on an AIX machine. But I have noticed that I now have both traditional syslog syslogd as well as syslog-ng daemons running simultaneously. root 237722 139372 0 Mar 24 - 2:34 /opt/soe/local/syslog_ng/sbin/syslog-ng -F -f /opt/soe/local/syslog_ng/etc/syslog-ng.conf -p /var/run/syslog-ng.pid root 307444 139372 0 Apr 04 - 0:03 /usr/sbin/syslogd
Is this fine or ther is something that has to be done to fix it. Please let me know.
Well, since you seem to have compiled syslog-ng on your own, the integration into your OS (e.g. service registration) must have been performed by you manually. You should probably disable the syslogd service via the native AIX service manager, unless you've ensured that the two daemons do not collide on things like udp/514 and log files. -- Bazsi
