This the first time I am running syslog-ng 3.0.4 on Solaris 10. Following are the issues I am seeing:

1. Two processes of syslog-ng are running.  Is this normal:
                    root 15423     1   0   Aug 31 ?           0:00 /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng
                    root 15424 15423   0   Aug 31 ?           0:00 /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng

2. I need to disable/enable syslog-ng multiple times to get syslog-ng online in  Solaris SVCADM after updating conf file.

3. Also if I disable syslog-ng in Solaris SVCADM should the tw0 processes stop?


Please help!
