Below is a transcript of what I get.
[anton@duzi anton]$ tail /var/log/messages

[root@duzi anton]# cat /var/run/syslogd.pid
2061
[root@duzi anton]# ps -ef | grep 2061

[root@duzi anton]# kill -SIGHUP 2061

I have not touched the syslog.conf file. It should be as originally
installed. I have another RH9 box, where the syslog works as
