Hi Doug


Thanks a ton for your help.

I found the issue was the following line in my /etc/rc.conf

syslogd_flags="-l /var/run/log -l /var/named/var/run/log -b 196.x.x.x -a 
196.x.x.x:`*`"

I changed it to: syslogd_flags="-l /var/run/log -l /var/named/var/run/log -b 
196.x.x.x -a 196.x.x.x:*"

Obviously it was the `*` that was causing the problem with it trying to 
execute the * every time something was refrencing the file. I found it in 
some howto a while ago and didn't see the connection until you pointed it 
out made me think.


Thanks again

Clay
