Don't forget that when using the Logswitch command, it has an optional parameter to
allow you to name the logfile. We call ours by the previous date so that the date and
the contents match.

I'd suggest running it instead at around 11:50pm. That way the log files
date is the same date as the information contained in the log. If you run
it at or after midnight, the log will be named with the new date which is a
day later than the information contained therein.

Doesn't Windows NT have type of AT command to perform an FW LOGSWITCH
command? If not that, how about the task scheduler?
In either case, we run an FW LOGSWITCH every night at midnight so the log is
fresh for the day.

My problem is managing of the FW1 log file, I have FW1 4.1 on NT4.0 SP6a
I can't find any command to implement circular log or open newlog file at
specific time.
If I don't manualy manage the file increases indefinitely (and the disk
space decreeses).
any idea or suggest
Thanks in advance,
Claudio
