To replace FreeBSD's standard syslogd with msyslog, do this:

a) create a configuration in ${PREFIX}/etc/syslog.conf.
  See ${PREFIX}/share/examples/msyslog for examples.

b) Set up a startup script in ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d.
  For your convinience, a msyslog.sh.sample has been provided.

c) Stop the standard FreeBSD syslogd from starting automatically by putting this
   in the end of /etc/rc.conf:

syslogd_enable="NO"
