It appears that syslog has stopped working since I restarted my FC5
server yesterday, about 24 hours ago. There have not been any entries
made in the following log files since the shut down yesterday: cron,
maillog, messages, rkhunter.log, or secure.
syslogd and klogd are shown to be running. When the server is now shut
down, the shut down of system logger is shown to fail.
Where do I start to find the solution to this problem? Are there there
any ideas of suggestions? I haven't been able to find anything on
Google or the list archive.
I encountered this situation recently. In my case, at least, I traced
it down to vmware modifying /etc/services, which then lost its proper
selinux context. There were entries in my audit.log denying permission
to syslogd. After issuing a restorecon /etc/services, the problem was
resolved.
