>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
