Hi,

I have a question about an OpenBSD 7.3 host that has syspatches up to
today (July 4, 2023).

I noticed in: /var/log/messages that the: syslogd process is restarting
every three hours:

      /var/log/messages

          Jun 18 11:00:01 server syslogd[83783]: restart
          Jun 18 14:00:01 server syslogd[83783]: restart
              . . .

I checked: man syslogd and looked at the cron tabs on the system and
there doesn't appear to be anything related to the restarts.

newsyslog signals syslogd with a HUP when rotating logs.


Hi Ricky and Stuart,

Thank you for your replies. Ok, this definitely gives me some clues to work with.
