Hi, It shouldn't. Just don't leave any log viewer opened while performing the switch.

(i.e. does it at any stage stop and restart the firewall?) I've got a fw1 2000 box with a log file which hasn't been rotated for about three months, so it has a very large log file. I want to setup regular (nightly) log rotation and log anaylsis on this box. First I ned to rotate the existing log. I will be doing this via a remote ssh connection issuing the command fw logswitch . once this is done I will set up the nightly log rotation with a regular cron job. Any help wuold be appeciated.
