[syslog-ng] Cannot find init.d.AIX in contrib folder

[CentralRegion IPAdmin]

Network based services on AIX can be started in the config-file called
/etc/rc.tcpip

You  can simply add the startup command there:

/usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng -f /etc/syslog-ng.conf

If I remember correctly then AIX has a service manager and you can
register syslog-ng directly with that without having a separate script.
Just be sure to use the -F option for syslog-ng to avoid it going to the
background.
