Synopsis: syslogd crashing if kill'd with -9 or already running

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: dd
State-Changed-When: Thu May 31 19:36:20 PDT 2001
State-Changed-Why: 
It exits because its socket, /var/run/log, is still there because you didn't
give it a chance to clean up.  The solution is not to use SIGKILL.  In fact,
don't use SIGKILL unless the program doesn't want to die after you send it
a SIGTERM; you'll have less problems if you do it this way.
