This error message suggests that your workstation's copy of syslogd is trying to log to a file on the workstation. Most likely, you are missing a link "/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/syslog.conf -> /tmp/syslog.conf" If the link is there, make sure that /tmp/syslog.conf exists on the workstation and contains a line "*.* @servername", where 'servername' is the name of your server. -- David Johnston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Little Bald Consulting, LLC -- David Johnston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
