I tend to agree with most opinions on the list, this function is easier to achieve through scripting. There's a utility getting about called 'delold' that does the trick nicely, and even for an overworked and underpaid sysadmin the script should take less than a couple of minutes to knock up :-)

That is a good point, but being a overworked and underpaid admin I like to have the application do as much work for me as possible ;) :)

We don't think it's the application that should delete files.  It's something the admin should do and therefore we never added this feature to Servers Alive.

Just a minor thing that would be good. Would it be possible to restrict the quantity of log files that Salive stores. For example, I tend to set Salive to create a new log each day - it would be good to only keep a maximum of 30 days of logs so that the disk does not fill up.
