Hi,
Really, as mentioned by Balazs, try using /var/run/log in your
syslog-ng.conf file.
On Freebsd 4.5:
syslog.h:#define _PATH_LOG "/var/run/log"
/dev/log is a symbolic link to /var/run/log, so you can not use it to
create your socket. I guess it provides an interface for applications to
log to /dev/log.
Trying to start the bsd syslogd with /dev/log (syslogd -p /dev/log) will
also fail.
Regards,
Esteban.

I don't really understand you here. syslog-ng fails to open /dev/log as
creating a socket is a write operation.
Try ktrace-ing the original syslogd to see what it does to create its
socket. Maybe it creates /var/run/log and /dev/log is a symlink to
/var/run/log ?
I'm Ccing you to the syslog-ng list, they might have an answer ready for
you.
