As mentioned before, I cant get syslogd to run properly.

It seems that selinux is blocking syslogd.

If I understand this correctly selinux is stopping syslogd to read
syslog.conf.

How do I do to get it to work, there is no reference in the selinux
man-pages to syslogd.
With best regards

You can just restorecon /etc/syslog.conf. Is there some startup script that is rewriting this file? Context of syslog.conf is supposed to be etc_t, if a startup script was creating the file it would be
etc_runtime_t.  I can add the permissision if this is a normal occurrance.
