Are you sure it isn't just logging to another facility?  The manual
page is quite clear about the facility used; usually ``daemon'', unless
wrapping options are specified, in which case ``auth'.

You can find out for yourself exactly which facility.priority is used
for any given message as follows...

Uncomment the line in /etc/syslog.conf which sends _all_ syslog messages
to /var/log/all.log.  Create that file as follows:

	touch /var/log/all.log

Then kill syslogd and start a new instance up with the -v (verbose)
option, which causes syslogd to include in its log files the facility
and priority of each message.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
