daemon.log messages in dxconsole after stop/start syslogd

Managers,

I have a script that runs once a week that does the following:

/sbin/init.d/syslog stop
mv /var/adm/binary.errlog /usr/local/logs/binerrlogs/binary.errlog.yymmdd
cp /dev/null /var/adm/binary.errlog
/sbin/init.d/syslog start

Since upgrading to V4.0b, when ever this runs the messages that would
normally go into /var/adm/syslog.dated/?/daemon.log are displayed on the
dxconsole instead. If I reboot things go back to normal.

Can anyone explain why this is happening & how to get it corrected?

TIA,
