List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2008 20:07:11 -0000 I tried to use syslog to debug an issue with dhclient and noticed that syslogd is started too late for it to work. This is because dhclient operates in a chroot jail so must setup it's connection to syslogd before privsep work is done. This seems like a general problem and one that should be fixed. Anyone got an idea how to correct this? Sam
