Log oddness



Has anything strange been happening in testing/woody's logging facilities
lately?

In the last week, one of my machines has two days where the archived syslog
is completely empty (not even a "--MARK--") and this morning I found a
warning that auth.log was smaller than it had been the last time it was
checked.  I'm inclined to think that someone managed to break into this
system, but first I want to check on whether there are any alternate
explanations which won't require me to wipe the drive and reinstall.
