So i picked up a powerbook recently, and i was looking around in the init files, and noticed it's using the syslogd from the BSD system (which of course, is what i expected). I've been thinking of moving it over to syslog-ng but i noticed something quite strange... syslogd's startup script first deletes the /dev/log entry, and then starts up the daemon, which to me means that the syslogd daemon creates the dev entry itself. Am I correct in assuming this? If i want to install syslog-ng onto my mac, how do i emulate this functionality? has anyone done this yet?
