Re: unlink syslog messages

Do a bdf make sure your system doesn't have a full /var filesytstem or any other for that matter.

It appears to be complaining about a missing module, or maybe it can't open it. if it can't open it, first guess would be.

Increase maxusers in the kernel
On 11.00 you may need to manually increase nproc and nfile or those parameters will be increased by formula.

Best bet in this case is sam Kernel, configurable parameters. Change maxusers, check nproc and nfile, make sure maxfiles_lim is greater than maxfiles.

Then actions, process kernel, your system boots and you try again.

Obviously this will dirrupt production and you may need to follow internal user notification procedures.

Re: unlink syslog messages

Run this:

swlist -v |grep telent

and see if it returns anything like this:

title telnet kernel patch
description "Patch PHNE_16546: telnet kernel patch"
title telnetd(1M) patch
description "Patch PHNE_19298: telnetd(1M) patch"

And then run:

# swlist -v |grep pam

and check for this:

title cumulative libpam.1 patch.
description "Patch PHCO_15448: cumulative libpam.1 patch."
title cumulative libpam patch.
description "Patch PHCO_20104: cumulative libpam patch."

if not, you may be missing patches.
