Re: logcheck gaps in time



- rebooted which should take care of cron / syslogd / logcheck.sh not running
- apt-get --reinstall install logcheck just in case 
- hacker? that is my fear.  How can I find evidence that the @#$@ is in there?

In the past it has always sent an email, even if there was nothing to report.  Now some hours have no emails being sent.
