I disagree, if the file was re-created. Actually, I find it weird and counter intuitive that syslogd will not log to the files in the config file (/etc/syslog.conf) unless they already exists. It really feels like we are living with a programming bug 25 years later.... If I didn't want syslogd to log something, I would not have it in syslog.conf. -- -- David ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
