    Hello,

    I am running RHEL 3. syslogd was running fine, and I modified
    /etc/syslog.conf to log to a remote system...

    *.warn;*.alert;*.emerg;*.err;*.info @loghost.domain.com

    That worked fine (and yes I made sure it is tabs, not spaces).
    However, I then installed CheckPoint NGX (firewall management
    console), and now syslogd seems to be broken. Anytime it goes to log
    a message, /var/log/messages records...

    Oct 20 19:20:40 server syslogd: sendto: Bad file descriptor

    I've made sure /etc/syslog.conf is clean, copied it from a working
    system, nothing works.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Shane
