Hello all, Syslog-ng is still dying on hup. I can not make it consistent. Here is a snipet from syslog-ng's log file. Oct 31 20:41:47 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21918]: syslog-ng version 1.4.7 starting Oct 31 20:42:10 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21918]: SIGHUP received, restarting syslog-ng Oct 31 20:42:24 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: syslog-ng version 1.4.7 starting Oct 31 20:42:29 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: AF_INET client connected from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, port 1028 Oct 31 20:43:29 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: SIGHUP received, restarting syslog-ng Oct 31 20:43:29 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: new configuration initialized Oct 31 20:43:38 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: SIGHUP received, restarting syslog-ng Oct 31 20:43:38 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: new configuration initialized Oct 31 20:45:22 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: SIGHUP received, restarting syslog-ng Oct 31 20:45:22 xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx syslog-ng[21956]: new configuration initialized You can see where I have hupped syslog-ng. the SIGHUP shows that. If it is not followed by the message saying 'new cong' initialized then it died. I have tried hupping several ways, manually with -HUP, manually with -1, with a script. About 1 out of every 3 times it dies. I can hup it 10 times in a row with no problems and sometimes it dies every other time. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I did not include my conf file because I have sent it out plenty of times. :) Thank you for the help, Nija _____________________________________________________________ Global Virtual Desktop Get your free Desktop at http://www.magicaldesk.com
