Subject: CRITICAL: syslogd hangs
distribution: Debian slink
kernel: 2.0.36
hardware: i486dx2
package: syslogd
version : 1.3-3
config file: original
severity: critical
When invoked by INIT or by hand (through /etc/init.d/sysklogd)
syslogd hangs for 2 minutes or so. Then all seems to be ok
(syslogd is among running processes) but, as an example,
pppd or startx don't run (they hangs too).
No messages are written in /var/log/messages after:
"Adding swap ..."
This happened after a normal shutdown, after havin used pon, poff,
pppconfig and other various tool for dialing.
