Re: log message

Hi,

Is this the "fam" you are running?:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
fam-server -
file alternation monitoring daemon
fam is a file alternation monitoring service. That means that you can
receive signals, if files are created or changed.
This package provides the fam daemon with runlevel scripts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

If so, something ('fam-client' maybe?) is trying to connect to the fam 
server, and is being refused for whatever reason...

If you aren't using the fam server, just turn it off via redhat's 
chkconfig util - end of problem ;-)

regards,
jamie
