Category: aolserver3_3 Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jerry Asher (jerryasher) >Assigned to: Kriston Rehberg (kriston) Summary: specify log files access permissions Initial Comment: Added Ns_ConfigGetOctal to config.tcl (declared in ns.h). Ns_ConfigGetOctal retrieves an octal constant from the config.tcl. Used Ns_ConfigGetOctal to get a UNIX file mode specification for the server log and the access logs. Modified nsd/log.c to examine new config.tcl parameter ns_section ns/parameters ns_param serverlogmode 0664 nsd/log.c will open the server log and then change its mode to serverlogmode. Serverlogmode defaults to 0644. ns_section ns/server/yourserver/module/nslog ns_param accessmode 0664 ns_param iplookups true nslog/nslog.c will open the access log and then change its mode to accessmode. Accessmode also defaults to 0644. I find that opening logs to different modes is useful for ISPs or corporate installations of AOLserver, in which different users, at different times, may need to start/stop AOLserver, and/or delete the log files. I also added a new parameter, iplookups that defaults to off. If set to on, then the access log will perform Reverse DNS Lookups for you. The usual caveat applies, that this can slow down overall AOLserver performance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=303152&aid=455813&group_id=3152
