The configuration files normally reside in this directory.  With most of the
distributions usually a sample config file ends up in there.  1.4.11 is kind
of old though.  But here is a sample config file attached you can use.  It
is only a sample and will need to be modified to suit your environment.
Also by default syslog-ng looks for syslog-ng.conf in /etc/syslog-ng. I'm
not sure where the rpm would put the contents of the doc directory.  

Regards,

Drew

hello

i have downloaded the rpm for syslog-ng (syslog-ng-1.4.11-1.i386.rpm) and
libol(libol-0.2.21-1.i386.rpm).
I installed them on my server by using the command
 rpm -i syslog-ng-1.4.11-1.i386.rpm
rpm -i libol-0.2.21-1.i386.rpm

the syslog-ng directory is created under the /etc directory.
However, the syslog-ng directory does not contain any files.

Grateful if someone could help

Regards
madhvi
