Hi Marcus,

Oh boy! :-)

I believe that you are not locked into running syslog-ng.  We are not experts
in anything SuSE, but I see that there is an RPM for syslogd on the SuSE
FTP site for v9.3:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.3/suse/i586/syslogd-1.4.1-537.i586.rpm

> Could anyone help me?

Unfortunately, we do not have enough experience with syslog-ng or SuSE
to be able to help you get LDM logging working using syslog-ng.  We
recommend, therefore, that you strongly consider installing and using
syslogd.  If/when you do, you can configure it using the standard directions
available in the Unidata LDM webpages.
