[opensuse] Rotating logs
Hi list One special programme produces entries into its very own log. I'd like that log to be included into the normal log rotating thing that SuSE10.2 does. So as to avoid having one log growing bigger and bigger and bigger and... how-to? :-) -- - Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Look in /etc/logrotate.d/, and place your own file there. You can read man logrotate to find out all the various kinds of options there are (weekly, daily, monthly rotates, rotations based on maximum file size, compress or don't compress the rotated files, etc etc). If you wish, post your prototype control file here before installing it. I am sure that will generate lots of comments about different ways to do things :-) -- Hypocrisy is the homage vice pays to virtue. -- François de La Rochefoucauld -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I looked into the files already there and got inspired. - thanks again! -- - Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
