The /etc/logadm.conf file has been changed to reflect syslog-ng rather than syslog to no avail.

While attempting to diagnose the problem it was noticed that there are two syslog-ng processes running (only the second of which is in the pid file). Also a kill -HUP on either process seems to have no effect at all.

Has anyone else experienced a problem like this ?
You would be better off putting syslog-ng under SMF control. Then all you would need to do is use the refresh/restart command.
