/dev/msglog is a symlink to this crw------- 1 root sys 97, 1 Oct 27 14:28 /devices/pseudo/sys...@0:msglog Do you have a /dev/msglog? Do you have a /devices/pseudo/sys...@0:msglog character special file? Was the permissions of /dev/ or /devices directory mucked with in any way? For example, was one of those well-intentioned security audit script run? Did you modify the rpc-bind method? It takes human intervention for root not to be able to write to /dev, you should back-track and determine what was done to the system.
