G'day,
Since around the beginning of the month, I've been encountering a
problem with our server (glenstorm, Ubuntu 8.04), where apps that
attempt to write out logs to /dev/log will hang for 5 or so minutes.
Most notably PAM gets affected, which makes ssh'ing in or using sudo a
_very_ lengthy

over a couple of days - working through a few issues.
The machine is running very well

Last time I saw something similar it was on our syslog host. ie many
servers were logging to it. The problem occurred where some of the
servers didn't have reverse DNS and syslogd was hanging trying to

If you haven't already, you could attach strace to syslogd and see what
it's up to, from memory it's strace -p pid
Good idea.
From looking at the man page, it's `strace -ppid` without a space.
That would be very

Oh, yes, I remember that now. That's syslog, is it?
Well, every single TCP connection that goes out of our house goes into
glenstorm's syslog, in that

Hi Blindraven,
I'd have to disagree with you there.
The device appears to have won a few awards (so
must do what it does well) but it doesn't do much

can browse the web and download
