syslog-ng is Syslog, Next Generation. If that exists then Suse is probably using that instead of vanilla syslog.
What version of SuSE are you using?
If you're running syslog (not syslog-ng) on SLES 8 or 9 (including 9.0 thru 9.3 pro) it should be located at [tt]/etc/syslog.conf[/tt] as the default unless someone changed it.
Issue this command as root [tt]ps ax --cols 1024 | grep syslogd[/tt] and look for the [tt]-f[/tt] option. The argument is the location of the configuration file.
If there is no -f option it is using the default.

I'm currently using syslog-ng but I'm having a problem with my network devices connecting to it. ALl I would like to do is have the routers and switches to report back.
