Sounds quite a rare situation, unless there is a file that you've moved around while adapting it to each machine - and that file could be having a small issue within. I'm thinking of a situation where you do not want to manually edit your syslog.conf for every individual machine and so just copy one syslog.conf from machine A into machines B and C, which then end up inheriting the small typo in syslog.conf. You could start from there but that's a guess. -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
