Hi folks,
I got a bazillion of error messages in /var/log/daemon
:
Nov 27 08:33:25 gate6a pflogd[26893]: Corrupted log file.
Nov 27 08:33:25 gate6a pflogd[26893]: Invalid/incompatible log file, move it
away

Nov 27 08:33:32 gate6a pflogd[2985]: Corrupted log file.

Nov 27 08:33:32 gate6a pflogd[2985]: Logging suspended: open error
:
Problem is, pflogd doesn't tell which one. I am logging to /var/log/\
pflog{0..3}. Nothing else but pflogd is writing these files. They are
rotated every hour, using the default
/var/log/pflog 600 3 250 * ZB "pkill -HUP -u root -U root -t - -x
pflogd"
in /etc/newsyslog.conf. crontab entry:
0 * * * * /usr/bin/newsyslog
I can't remember having seen this problem for 6.7.
(Not to mention that syslog should try to avoid printing the same
message again and again.)
I am legally bound to provide log files, so this is a huge problem.
Every insightful comment is highly appreciated.
Harri
