In addition after a while other network daemons (named, gated) started to hang as well (syslog() call tries to log on /dev/console when syslogd is not running - it should NOT block there). Apparently syslogd is not able to open /dev/console -- when i've commented /dev/console entry out of /etc/syslog.conf syslogd started ok. In my case the source of the problem was getty, which was configured to run on port cuaa0 instead of ttyd0; after it was reconfigured to run on "ttyd0" all problems disappeared. --igor To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
