Running Solaris 2.5.1 on a Ultra E4000

I had a ticket opened with SUN, in which /var/adm/messages was not getting written to. We narrowed it down to syslogd being corrupted when messages were written to /dev/console.

In the /etc/syslog.conf I removed all calls to /dev/console;
# *.err;kern.notice;auth.notice;user.none /dev/console

and messages would continue to get written to the messages file. I tested this with a failed 'su' attempt. But when adding it back in and tested it, syslogd would hang... ?

Anyone, know of problems with Lantronix console servers and syslogd ?
