How do you know that the file rsyslog is missing? I guess the answer is in the files you wanted to attach, but I don't see any attachments.
Why Red Hat 5? In case this is Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the newest version is 7. Version 5 is years old.
If the file is missing, just reinstall the package that contains it. Most probably it's the rsyslog packages (not sure about RHEL 5 though). yum install rsyslog does the trick. You need to be superuser to do this.
If there is no rsyslog package, find the correct package with yum whatprovides */rsyslog
