Hi all,
a server of mine is having a strange behaviour: the syslogd daemon crashes 
after a while it has been started, and of course I cannot gain system 
information without it. I've tried to start the daemon manually with the -d 
option, and the only thing I see is a few lines like the following:
Calling select, active file descriptors (max 3): 3

Any idea or clue about how to understand what is happening?
Thanks,
Luca
