Hi, around 3.0.x IIRC, syslog-ng gained a supervisor process that automatically restarts syslog-ng if it crashes. I think that's why you see now two processes. You can check it by killing the child process - it should respawn, or killing the parent process (should not respawn). Regards, Robert On 03/09/2011 07:47 AM, Rakesh Rajasekharan wrote:
Hi, I have compiled syslog-ng 3.0.7 on an HP-UX machine.
