Bug #3377
opennewsyslog fails to rotate syslog logs

Description
So:
newsyslog: can't notify daemon, pid 3476 = /var/run/syslog.pid: Operation not permitted
The pid is corect, `ping -1 -F /var/run/syslog.pid`, the only difference is `syslogd` is running under `svc`.

I guess you meant ls instead of ping.
Which file are you trying to rotate ? And what does "the only difference is `syslogd` is running under `svc`." ? Is svc a system user of some sort ?

Sorry, s/ping/pkill/: `pkill -1 -F /var/run/syslog.pid` is actually working.
`svc` is a /sbin/svc, we have it since 4.0, it can be used to automatically to set up/control/jail service. I'm using custom init, that can use svc/daemon/plain service startup.

Actually, sometimes I can even hit it from shell:
# pkill -1 -F /var/run/syslog.pid
pkill: signalling pid 1117: Operation not permitted
# kill -1 1117
1117: Operation not permitted
