Here's the syslog from the VE, when I recently had to restart the HN: Apr 16 23:18:07 ralph1 shutdown[27780]: shutting down for system halt Apr 16 23:18:07 ralph1 init: Switching to runlevel: 0 Apr 16 23:18:08 ralph1 kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped. Apr 16 23:18:08 ralph1 kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating. Apr 16 23:18:09 ralph1 exiting on signal 15 Apr 16 23:29:33 ralph1 syslogd 1.5.0#2: restart. Apr 16 23:29:33 ralph1 kernel: klogd 1.5.0#2, log source = /proc/kmsg started. Apr 16 23:29:35 ralph1 atd: Cannot get uid for daemon: Unknown error 530 Apr 16 23:29:35 ralph1 /usr/sbin/cron[16207]: (CRON) INFO (pidfile fd = 3) Apr 16 23:29:36 ralph1 /usr/sbin/cron[16208]: (CRON) STARTUP (fork ok) Apr 16 23:29:36 ralph1 cron[16208]: Error: bad username; while reading /etc/crontab Apr 16 23:29:36 ralph1 cron[16208]: Error: bad username; while reading /etc/cron.d/php5 Apr 16 23:29:36 ralph1 /usr/sbin/cron[16208]: (CRON) INFO (Running @reboot jobs) Apr 16 23:29:39 ralph1 init: no more processes left in this runlevel Notice the error messages regarding uid's and usernames. This lasts for a few minutes and then everything starts working normally without any intervention of mine. I'm at a loss.
