I have two FreeBSD machines running 4.10-RELEASE-p5. On machine A
newsyslog rolls over the log files perfectly, on Machine B I get the
message
/var/log/auth.log.0: No such file or directory
The newsyslog.conf entries are :
MACHINE A : /var/log/auth.log 600 7 100 * Z
MACHINE B: /var/log/auth.log 600 7 100 $W6D0 Z
An ls of the /var/log directory yields
ls -ltr auth*
-rw------- 1 root wheel 97872 Dec 11 00:00 auth.log.1
-rw------- 1 root wheel 95 Dec 11 00:00 auth.log.0.gz
-rw------- 1 root wheel 176 Dec 11 09:42 auth.log
I have looked relevant permissions and files sizes on both machines and they
are identical. Can anyone suggest what the problem is? Is the time entry the
issue ... I just copied it from another entry in the newsyslog.conf file.
With thanks
