>Description:
Our machine has been up for a while. About 2 weeks ago (see
logfile excerpt) log data stop appearing the logs. I attempted to
HUP syslog, which generated a restart line in /var/log/messages.
Still, no log data. A hard restart fixed it.
>How-To-Repeat:
Don't know.
>Fix:
/etc/rc.d/syslog stop; /etc/rc.d/syslog start
