This happens whether the files previously existed or not. While I don't know syslog-ng internals, I made some debug. It seems syslog-ng uses chmod and derivatives only on three locations. During install, only one of it is fired. It's src/afunix.c in afunix_sd_init(): it chmods /var/run/log to 0666. Even ktrace didn't help me. The only chmod that can be suspicious in its output: chmod(0x679aa0,<invalid>438) But it may refer to the error message printed on the screen: mknod `/dev/console': Operation not supported
