Re: Syslog message errors!
Umm.. one thing. The very first line of the errors, where is says
"syslog restart" is not part of the errors. I accidently put that in.
That's from the daily syslog restart. I just cut and pasted the errors
from the top of today's syslog, so that's how I got the "syslog restart"
message, by accident.
