A few days ago i finally moved my family internet gateway from my own workstation to a dedicated server. On that server i have configured syslogd to dup the logs to my workstation, so that i can see what's happening without having to ssh to the gateway. The thing works absolutely fine but there is something annoying: Whenever i shutdown my workstation, the gateway stops logging to my workstation; this is normal, but when i bring my workstation up again, the gateway's syslogd dont seems to notice it and i have to ssh to that gateway and do a 'killall -HUP syslogd' in order to reactivate the remote logging. Any help will be greatly appreciated. PS: sorry for bad english but in french, i guess that few people would have understood :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
