let me try to explain it again:

--snip--
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ps aux |grep sysl
root      4523  0.0  0.1   1700   644 ?        Ss   19:28   0:00 /sbin/syslogd
fmeister 29528  0.0  0.1   2884   748 pts/1    R+   21:06   0:00 grep sysl
--snap--

syslog is running as _root_ but in /etc/init.d/sysklogd is:

--snip--
# Options for start/restart the daemons
#   For remote UDP logging use SYSLOGD="-r"
#
SYSLOGD="-u syslog"
--snap--

so it _should_ run as user syslog ...

i tried to add some parameters - _no_ parameters are recognized in this
variable "SYSLOGD" in the init-script. if I rename every occurrence of
the variable "SYSLOGD" into somewhat other, it works.
