Log rotation, how to set it ?

[Benj]

Hi, my log rotation happens once a week on sunday.
Which file should I edit to have it lets say happen each day ? How do I set
log rotation ?

Thanks,
Benj

I do not know how the details vary from version to version but on my
system (potato, logrotate-3.2) there is a script
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate.  Perhaps yours is in /etc/cron.weekly?  In
that case move it to /etc/cron.daily.  Various parameters for log
rotation may be set in /etc/logrotate.conf.

 Assuming you use 'logrotate', there is the config file
 /etc/logrotate.conf.
 


Ok i'v specified in this file to logrotate daily instead of weekly.
Should I restart anything ?
