I can't get syslogd to start up again on one of my 4.4-Stable
machines. It had been running since January without a problem until
today.
Here's what happens when I start it up:
# /usr/sbin/syslogd -s -d
sending on inet and/or inet6 socket
off & running....

I've tried several times now to rm syslog* and log out of /var/run and
restart syslogd, but no dice. Any suggestions?
TIA
