Please do not run a production system from Citadel CVS as code may not always be stable. Sites which are unable to patch or upgrade may work around the issue by disabling system logging, and logging to a separate text file. To perform this action, remove the -l option from the citadel command line in /etc/inittab and replace it with a -t option specifying the text file to log to. Once complete, signal init to re-read the inittab (e.g. init q) and then restart the Citadel server. Example: cit1:2345:respawn:/usr/local/citadel/citserver -h/usr/local/citadel -x3 -t/var/log/citadel.log
