[syslog-ng]Re: problem with syslog-ng and door

Balazs,

An Etherlite is a console concentrator. Basically, it's a serial connection
from the server back to the etherlite. We use a piece of software
called conserver to access our system consoles over this etherlite
connection.

When one of these ports hang, syslog-ng hangs (I'm assuming because it's
trying to write out to the console) and this causes su commands
and others to hang.

If you'd like, send me an email offline and I can give you some more
background.

Thanks for responding to this.
