I did some poking aroung on my system and saw that syslogd was running with
the "-t" switch. I removed the switch and restarted it and it now logs just
fine.  Here is what the Solaris syslogd man page says for "-t":

     -t    Disable the syslogd UPD port to turn  off  logging  of
           remote messages.

Not sure why this was set but it kept Sys::Syslog from successfully using
syslogd.  Does anyone know about this option and why it should/shouldn't be
set?  Possibly makes syslogd less secure w/o it?
