Hello
I am not sure where to ask my question as I am beginner in UNIX.
My previous sysadmin set a log file to monitor a process and in the
event if the log file gets too big, delete the log file and do kill
-HUP syslogd id and then the log file will automatically be created
again to monitor the process.

But mistakenly after deleting the log file, I did kil -9  (instead of
kill -HUP)syslog pid and now the log file is not being created
automatically.

Any ideas of how to start the log file automatically.
