syslogd restart.
Hi All,
Is it normal for this kind message ?........ I ran the system log viewer in RH9 and found my /var/log/messages file was very short compared to how it looked a short time ago. The first line of the file read: Apr 18 13:10:50 localhost syslogd 1.4.1: restart. Is this normal :confused: Many thanks in advance. deft....... |
You probably have logrotate running which answers both questions:
1) messages file is smaller -> was too big has been rotated, 2) in order to rotate some (log)files syslogd needs to be restarted. |
