Hi again,

sorry, someone asked me to include the original question which I forgot.
The problem was:

> we noticed that our syslogd died and are not sure about the reason
> why it happened. One disk in a metaset was actually damaged, could
> this cause syslog to die when it tries to access the disk or could
> it be due to a kind of known DOS attack or ...?

And the answer again :

> As stated by many, this is a known bug on both Solaris 2.5.1 and 2.6.
> Relative patches are :
>
> 103738-12 for 2.5.1
> 106439-04 for 2.6

My thanks also to Kerstin Lindberg <kerstin.a.lindberg@posten.se> who
answered my original mail just after I sent the first summary.

Regards,
Gianluca
