OK so here is my problem when our admin did a yum update on our CentOS from 5.1 to 5.2. When going to 5.2 it uninstalled syslog-ng when I go to reinstall it i get a conflict.

I can't remove the syslogd as it is needed by the system.. I am kinda of at a loss of what to do from here.

SO what are my best options.. I have heard that some people using syslog to to pipe to mysql..

So any help ideas would be great.

Thanks.

Just ignore it and proceed with the removal of syslog - syslog-ng will meet the needs, even if the rpm subsystem is not aware of it...

Code:

# rpm -e syslog --nodeps
