I currently have stats turned on for once an hour. It was running fine
until I rotated my log file.  I currently have all syslog-ng messages
with a match(syslog-ng) filter going to /var/adm/messages.  I rotated
the logs, and HUP'd the syslog-ng process, it indicated in the new
messages file that it was restarted and that is the last message from
syslog-ng in that file. syslog-ng is logging other facilities to that
file, but not stats, or any other syslog-ng messages for that matter,
though I don't know if there would have been any others.  Am I missing
something or is this a bug?  If I completely stop and restart syslog-ng
everything starts working again.=20

By the way, I rotate the log file by cat'ing it out to another filename,
then cat'ing /dev/null to /var/adm/messages.

Thanks
