> If the fifo doesn't exist when syslog-ng needs it, syslog-ng will warn repeatedly and CPU goes 100%.
> Is this the wanted behavior? Maybe only warn once for each fifo? Maybe an option to create the fifo
> if non-existant? With specified perminssions and user/group access?

    As reported on the mailing list, syslog-ng is not currently capable of

    autocreate pipes when needed.
