Yes, syslog-ng is running fine (I'd already configured rc.conf like you say). The problem is that it has a destination set up to pipe to the program ccze, and that pipe doesn't work unless I restart syslog-ng after boot time.

I've also tried moving the script into /etc/rc.d and renaming it syslogng. After removing the devfs requirement it boots ok, but still requires a syslog-ng restart.

Ashley,
before the restart of syslog-ng, is there any output to ttyv7 at all?

Perhaps the ttyv7 isn't properly created until after all the local rc scripts are run? That's all I can think.

you may want to edit the syslogng.sh to add some debug lines to see if ttyv7 is up @ that point in time. based on the result of this, you may want to background (sleep? wait and try again?) the launch of syslogng until after the ttyv7 is ready.

or figure out in which order things are started and make sure the ttyvs are launched before syslogng

good luck,
B
