HPUX : Issue with Syslog


problems with syslog
The configuration file /etc/syslog.conf should NOT contain spaces as separation between two parameters (of course, in comments lines). Make sure that they are replaced by (one or more) TAB characters.
Do this by means of:
Lazy-cat #/etc/syslog.conf

If the string here somewhere '^ I' is for it means that rather than a TAB character.
Initialize the syslog daemon by:
Lazy-cat # Kill-HUP `cat/var/run/syslog.pid`
Of the restart through:
Lazy-cat # Kill `cat/var/run/syslog.pid`
Lazy-cat #Syslogd -D


 debugging syslog
Start the syslog daemon in debugging mode:
# Syslogd –D –d -m 1
