I found the answer, in the Report Settings on the NetScreen firewall, I had the syslog reporting going to LOCAL0 instead of LOCAL7. When I changed it to LOCAL7, the file I specified started receiving the messages.

Thanks for the input on getting syslog up and running correctly.

Do you need help?X

Syslog was working fine on the clients, I had it installed to a diff linux server and was trying to move it over. The issue was the location of the sysklogd file. The walkthough I found told me to modify the /etc/init.d/sysklogd file, when it should have been the /etc/default/syslogd file.=20

The syslog service is now running, listening on the correct port, and receiving messages from the Juniper firewall, but it's going to the /var/log/syslog file instead of the file I've indicated for the filename, /mnt/hdb1/syslog/logfilename.log

Is anyone else monitoring Juniper Netscreen firewalls? Is there something other than local7.debug I should be using to send it to the logfile I want?

Thanks.

On the sending machine, you put something like:

*.* @logger.my.domain

Do you need more help?X

On the receiving hosts, syslogd needs the -r parameter.

This is placed in /etc/default/syslogd

You'll also have to open the appropriate port in any firewall (both on the reciving and sending boxes).

Then I'd reboot all systems; the logger server first, followed by the logger clients.

On a recently updated testing system, but using kernel 2.6.21 (because I can't get the Cisco VPN client to compile with 2.6.22), I've had intermittent freezes of X too. In fact, had one moment ago! I was able to Ctl-Alt-F2 to a console, where I logged in and ran top, which reported 1 zombie process, which, it turned out, was ld-linux.so.2. I returned to the X console and used Ctrl-Backspace to end the session. After restarting, I have no zombie processes.

So, is it a problem with ld-linux.so.2, and, if so, what's the fix?

Ctrl+[ is handy, especially if you have turned Caps Lock into a Ctrl key.

Don't know where to look next?X

And, yes, you can use an map command in ~/.vimrc to use something else as escape.

Does the screen also blank or does it just freeze? I have/had a similar Problem. Maybe it's the same. Does yours also occur if there is no network (internet) connection?

I tried iceWM and in the 4 hours i was logged in, there was nothing. Again with gnome, as I have used for 10+ hours, has only frozen ones.

I looked at the connection and it showed, that I create the freeze in Xfce4 by unplugging the cable (syslog at the end, dmesg said nothing usefull). Unplugging has no effect on iceWM and gnome. I started replying your comments in Gnome and it froze the second time. During the freeze I noticed that the LED's on my switch where off, as there where no link on the ethernet cable to my laptop. I tried disable the avahi-daemon, it's mentioned in the syslog below. But it made no difference.
