Im trying to do the ntop log in a different place than /var/log/message.

My syslog.conf:
--------------------------
# Save ntop
local3.*            /var/log/ntop.log


My ntop.conf
--------------------------
### Logging messages to syslog (instead of the console):
###  NOTE: To log to a specific facility, use --use-syslog=local3
###  NOTE: The = is REQUIRED and no spaces are permitted.
--use-syslog=local


how I'm initiating ntop:
-----------------------
/etc/init.d/ntop start

Im running it as root, I restarted syslog.conf so the ntop.log was created,
but ntop is not sending any message to this log, it keeps going to
/var/log/message. I tested the log with:  "  logger  -p local3.error "log
test"  "    and it is writting. It seems that ntop is not linking with
local3.

What can I be doing wrong? My ntop is v3.3.8

thanks.
