Hello Bogdan,
AFAIK it is just restarting to facilitate the rolling of logfiles...
check out the manual page for the log file rotation setup in openBSD
man newsyslog
check out the config file for newsyslog.conf ...
cat /etc/newsyslog.conf
# $OpenBSD: newsyslog.conf,v 1.36 2016/12/27 09:17:5
Hi Everyone,
I'm having hard time understanding what is going on with the syslogd
on some of my servers. It restarts on a regular basis and that just
looks suspicious to me. I'm using OpenBSD 6.3 (GENERIC.MP).
Here is an output of the syslogd:
Sep 26 07:00:01 syslogd: restart
Sep 26 10:00:07 s
