Dear Norman 

Thank you very much. The problem with logging is fixed! I did what you 
said:

>fields instead of the required tabs.

>From syslog.conf man page (look at the last sentence):

>The syslog.conf file is the configuration file for the syslogd(8) 
>program.  It consists of blocks of lines separated by program 
>specifications, with each line containing two fields: the selector 
>field which specifies the types of messages and priorities to which 
>the line applies, and an action field which specifies the action to >be 
taken if a message syslogd receives matches the selection >criteria.  
The selector field is separated from the action field by >one or more 
tab characters.
                                                          
It was just my mistake to use spaces instead of tabs in 
/etc/syslogd.conf. Anyway, thank you very much.

Regards,
Nazila N.
