Hi Bill, thanks for your email. rpm -V logrotate shows no errors. I have restared the kernel logger and system logger and this has had no effect. One thing I have noticed is that minilogd keeps running and doesn't seem to hand off the logging responsibilities to syslogd.
Any other ideas? Thanks! Bryan On Thu, Apr 04, 2002 at 03:22:56AM +0100, Bill Crawford wrote: > On Wed, 3 Apr 2002, Bryan K. Walton wrote: > > > I have a box running Red Hat 6.2.
