2. syslogd tells that it cannot open the pid file. (Operation not
supported) However, it creates /var/log/syslogd.pid. But that file is
empty. What can be the problem?
After making another diskless distribution, I found out that the
'Operation not supported' error comes out because of calling flock() on
nfs. For example:
---------------
sendmail_submit: /etc/mail/aliases.db not present, generating
cannot flock(/etc/mail/aliases, fd=3, type=6, omode=4002, euid=0):
Operation not supported
--------------
The same message (Operation not supported) comes when creating the pid
file /var/log/syslogd.pid. The /var/log filesystem is writeable. Is it
possible that flock() is not implementedon nfs? :-(
