So far I haven't been able to get syslog to log anything other than it's startup message.
I'm using the stock syslog.conf file. logger test message does nothing so I ktraced it. The interesting part is: 22461 logger RET sigprocmask ~0x10100<SIGKILL|SIGSTOP> 22461 logger CALL sendsyslog(0xcfbda6a8,0x27) 22461 logger RET sendsyslog -1 errno 57 Socket is not connected 22461 logger CALL sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK,~0<>) 22461 logger RET sigprocmask 0<> 22461 logger CALL mprotect(0x39cd6000,0x1000,0x3<PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE>) So how would I re-connect sendsyslog? Rebooted a couple of times after upgrading to 5.6--I'll be glad to get past all of these hurdles so I can get up to 5.9! Thanks, Jeff Ross
