I've got 3 other machines that exhibit this issue as well. It seems that it's the order that services are started up in affects it ... haven't pinned down the right combo to make it do this each time.

On a test server, I have noticed that when the system reboots there is one instance of syslog-ng but two instances of the program being executed. There should only be one. If I do a /etc/init.d/syslog-ng restart, then I end up with just one instance of the program as expected, and the system appears to be fine. Any ideas? _______________________________________________ syslog-ng maillist - syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu https://lists.balabit.hu/mailman/listinfo/syslog-ng Frequently asked questions at http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/faq.html
