The Cisco logging facility on a router uses a random high port as the source for the syslog packets. I assume the PIX is the same since you're having trouble. The FreeBSD syslogd expects the packets to be sourced from port 514. You can try the flag that supposedly allows syslogd to take random source ports, but it doesn't work :-(
I'd strongly suggest you do what I did - just modify the syslogd source so it doesn't check source port, compile it, then install. If that is beyond your C programming skills drop me a note and I can email you the bungholed syslogd.c file and you can take it from there.
