Yesterday I noticed that no syslog-managed logs had been written to on my Sarge system for several days. "ps ax" didn't show any syslog daemon running. When I manually started syslog-ng, suddenly it wrote several hundred K of log entries.
Since I've restarted it (and I've been running "tail -f /var/log/messages" in an xterm and watching things) syslog-ng has restarted, as I believe it's supposed to do. That's syslog-ng version 1.6.2-3. The changelog indicates it hasn't changed since March, and the problem occurred in early July, so I don't know how it could be problem with syslog-ng directly. Is this something anyone else has noticed? -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabootu's Minister of Proofreading http://www.jabootu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
