syslog stops logging

Hi. We've been seeing a problem with syslogd logging in the past month or
two on a Tru64 4.0G (unpatched) machine. At unpredictable times, syslogd
suddenly stops all logging, though its daemon process remains up.
Running stop and start of syslogd from /sbin/init.d starts the logging
again. This happens several times a week, usually.

We can't find anything in any of the log files that seems out of order.
There is no coincidence that we can find of something running in
cron. Searching patch release notes on compaq.com for 4.0G turns up
nothing on syslogd.

Has anyone seen something like this, or have ideas how I can track down
what's happening?

Thanks lots,

Ann Cantelow
