Subject: Re: elog service crashes frequently 

We do run ELOG on a Linux server and see about weekly crashes, too. It seems to be connected to the authentication process (Kerberos, File), but we could not nail it down yet.

But we have set up a supervision process that checks every minute if the "elogd" process is still running. If not, it simply restarts it.

If ELOG is down for two minutes a week, this is fine for our users.

We have always had issues with eLOG crashing intermittently...  I upgraded from Server 2003 to Server 2008 about a year ago to try to reduce the issues...  which really didn't help.

The service now seems to crash every week...  (getting worse)...  Is anyone seeing these issues in Windows servers?  Any suggestions??
