[syslog-ng]solaris 9 problem, no logging

[Oscar Knight]

Thanks Bazsi,

That was part of the problem.  However, I made that change but still no
joy.

The trick was realizing that the config was by def
  in   /usr/local/etc/syslog-ng
  and not
  in   /etc/syslog-ng.

It's how they compile the packages at sunfreeware.com.


THANKS for the help.  It would not have worked without the change in
the location of the door file.

Great program.  Thanks for all your efforts!

Good day!
