Cygwin + syslog-ng

Until I can get a real workstation at work and get off this winblows, Cygwin is my friend.  I am working on some OO programming with PERL and really need to be able to log syslog messages locally. After installing syslog-ng, I couldn't figure out how to run it, till I stumbled on a page that mentioned the syslogd-config command.

Do you want to deinstall the syslogd service in favor of syslog-ng? (yes/no) yes Warning: The following function requires administrator privileg
