for making syslogd start automaticly yes, It's being started by
/sbin/init.d/syslogd or /etc/init.d/syslogd
If you do not disable the startup you will see quiet some errors.
Note that you can use the syslogger yourself as well !!
The command "logger" (man logger) can be very usefull !!

logger
logger(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands logger(1B)
NAME
logger - add entries to the system log
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/logger [-f filename] [-i] [-p priority] [-t tag] mm
[message]...
DESCRIPTION
The logger utility provides a method for adding one-line entries to the system log file from the command line. One or more message argu-
ments can be given on the command line, in which case each is logged immediately. If message is unspecified, either the file indicated with
-f or the standard input is added to the log. Otherwise, a filename can be specified, in which case each line in the file is logged. If
neither is specified, logger reads and logs messages on a line-by-line basis from the standard input.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-i Log the process ID of the logger process with each line.
-f filename Use the contents of filename as the message to log.
-p priority Enter the message with the specified priority. The message priority can be specified numerically, or as a facility.level
pair. For example, `-p local3.info' assigns the message priority to the info level in the local3 facility. The default pri-
ority is user.notice.
-t tag Mark each line added to the log with the specified tag.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Logging a message
The command:
example% logger System rebooted
will log the message `System rebooted' to the facility at priority notice to be treated by syslogd as other messages to the facility notice
are.
Example 2 Logging messages from a file
The command:
example% logger -p local0.notice -t HOSTIDM -f /dev/idmc
will read from the file /dev/idmc and will log each line in that file as a message with the tag `HOSTIDM' at priority notice to be treated
by syslogd as other messages to the facility local0 are.
