missing syslog entries
My users are complaining that some of the exception messages issued by their software package does not always show up in syslog. They saw the exceptions in the application log. These exception shpuld have also generated an entry to syslog. However they seem to be missing intermittently. Is this more likely an application problem or AIX problem. I need some advice on how I can perform further problem determination. I am using AIX 53.

SYSLOG(8) System Logging SYSLOG(8)
NAME
syslog-ng, syslogd
DESCRIPTION
There are different syslog daemon implementations supported as the system's syslog service, currently syslogd, syslog-ng and rsyslogd
The first installed daemon activates itself for the syslog service. Starting with openSUSE-11.2, it is rsyslogd, before it was syslog-ng.
But this depends on the software selection during the installation.
The name of the daemon used as syslog service is specified in the
SYSLOG_DAEMON variable in /etc/sysconfig/syslog.
The yast2 sysconfig module provides a comfortable way to switch to another installed daemon and restart the service.
The /etc/init.d/syslog init script is able to handle all supported daemons.
