Thanks bakunin,

But the syslogd.conf file is the exact same on both machines and both machines are running the syslogd daemon as syslogd -m 0.

One machine gets constant messages written to the messages file, the other gets pretty much nothing. it has regular bursts of messages then they just stop when the audit daemon rotates the log files:

The "system reboot" messages are just test messages I sent via logger.

avahi-resolve --name host-name ... avahi-resolve-host-name host-name ... avahi-resolve --address address ... avahi-resolve-address address ... DESCRIPTION
