Hi, I setup a server with Debian Etch and had a look at the handling of th logfiles.
Some logfiles are rotated with logrotated, which is quite confortable. But the syslogd-logfiles have their own script to rotate them. My question: Is there a goog reason for this or could I delete the syslog-script and rotate the syslog-logfiles with the logrotated too? And a second question to this matter: The syslog-script is restarting the syslogd every day. This seemes very odd to me. For what purpose is this? Why shouldn't I let run syslogd all the time (as long as I didn't change the config)? Thanks, Tom. -- "Feel free" - 10 GB Mailbox, 100 FreeSMS/Monat ...
