I have had FreeBSD running on my machine for the past 12 hours. Everything was working excellently. At 3pm today, the syslog attempted to roll over, and both syslogd and named stopped responding. There is no load on the machine, and sendmail, sshd, xntpd and httpd are all working without problems. I have tried starting syslogd again and it complains after about 30 seconds with the following error: syslogd: timed out waiting for child Attempts to start named produce a locked shell, and I have to forcefully kill the process. Debugging for syslog showed the following: [prozac]:(log)### /usr/sbin/syslogd -d syslogd: cannot create /var/run/log: Address already in use logmsg: pri 53, flags 4, from prozac, msg syslogd: cannot create /var/run/log: Address already in use ^Csyslogd: exiting on signal 2 syslogd: exiting on signal 2 logmsg: pri 53, flags 4, from prozac, msg syslogd: exiting on signal 2 ^C^Z [1]+ Suspended /usr/sbin/syslogd -d [prozac]:(log)### kill -9 %1 [1]+ Killed /usr/sbin/syslogd -d Any help would be appreciated. -- [ Mike Sawicki < f i f i at HAX d.o.t org > *DIE SPAM BOTS!* ] [ UNIX Systems Administrator, Geek & USENET Destructor ...... ] [ Advance Publications Internet / Phone:<201.459.2833> ...... ] [ Saturated Networks / Phone:<732.396.8653> ................. ] [ url...http://people.lojik.net/fifi/ ....................... ] --- "i am AN hacker." --- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
