Restarting syslog-ng

Environment: SUSE 10.3

I made a configuration change in '/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf' file in a server.

An article found on web says "After the change '/etc/init.d/syslog-ng' should be restarted". But there is no 'syslog-ng' in /etc/init.d directory.

What is syslog-ng or a different I should restart to make this change effective?

Thanks

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. BUGS
