I have a question regarding syslog daemon program
and the file that its writing to : /usr/spool/mqueue/syslog
Couple of weeks ago, the syslog message seems to disappear,
not the /usr/spool/mqueue/syslog file contain nothing but:
Jun 12 14:51:42 --- MARK --- Wed Jun 12 14:51:42 1991
appear in my syslog file.
/etc/syslog.conf looks like:
9*/usr/spool/mqueue/syslog
root
and from man page syslog(3), the openlog() call expect the /dev/log
file to exist which is not on my system, does this matter?
I have a DecStation 3100, running Ultrix 4.1
Is there a file or some lock somwhere that I should look for??
Thanks in advance
Danny
