Re: stange error

["Informatik.hu" <info@informatik.hu>]

I have read the thread, BUT. It says to change the ownership of log 
files to syslog, and set the $FileOwner variable to syslog in 
/etc/rsyslogd.conf.
I do not have syslog user in my system. Shall i create one for this 
purpose? This bug is ratger old (2009. septembe), has not been fixed yet?
