+syslog-ng is now installed! To replace FreeBSD's standard syslogd
+(/usr/sbin/syslogd), complete these steps:
+
+1. Create a configuration file named %%PREFIX%%/etc/syslog-ng.conf
+ (a sample named syslog-ng.conf.sample has been included in
+ %%PREFIX%%/etc). Note that this is a change in 2.0.2
+ version, previous ones put the config file in
+ %%PREFIX%%/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf, so if this is an update
+ move that file in the right place
+
+2. Configure syslog-ng to start automatically by adding the following
+ to /etc/rc.conf:
+
+ syslog_ng_enable="YES"
+
+3. Prevent the standard FreeBSD syslogd from starting automatically by
+ adding a line to the end of your /etc/rc.conf file that reads:
+
+ syslogd_enable="NO"
+
+4. Shut down the standard FreeBSD syslogd:
+
+ kill `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`
+
+5. Start syslog-ng:
+
+ %%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/syslog-ng start
+
