On 2.2.6-rmk1 syslogd does start. Both when /usr/sbin/syslogd is run at boot
and when I run it from a shell prompt it pauses for about 2 seconds then exits
(with zero), but it hasn't forked and left a background process. If I start it
with -d then it runs fine in the foreground, and I can ^Z bg it successfully.

If I try 

/usr/sbin/syslogd -n

I get

Can't lock, lock is held by pid 32928.


This would appear to be my problem. (except that I don't get see this error
message when it auto-backgrounds. Might this be regarded as a bug?)

What can I do about this?
Does it relate to crond failing to run with:
/usr/sbin/crond: can't lock /var/run/crond.pid, otherpid may be 67107332: Invalid 
argument


What do I do now?
