In looking at another problem, I noticed in SuSE 10.3 (and 10.2) there is a "boot step" called "S01earlysyslog". It seems to check to see if any logs are configured to use the net (looks for tcp & udp), and if they are, start them right away. For those not going to the net (those logged locally), normal syslog functionality is enabled in "S06syslog".
You read the check backwards. earlysyslog starts before the network is up, and only runs if it is *not* configured to use the net (if it is tcp or udp, it does an exit 0) It is a conscious decision though: see bug 65003 Also note that "earlysyslog" just starts the normal syslog daemon, so I wouldn't call this a "difference between the run levels" Anders -- Madness takes its toll -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
