Does anyone have any recommendations for a utility that will rotate
mail log files in much the same way as squid -k rotate does?
I've done a google search but the best I've turned up is newsyslog
which only runs (I think) on BSD.
A pointer to a HOW-TO or tutorial article that teaches me how to

Thanks for all the help. (I love this list.) :)

Hi, I generallly keep some of my log files open ni a terminal via tail -f.
For example:
tail -f /var/log/messages
However, tail does not "move" to the new "messages" (or whatever) log file
when they are rotated by savelog. So for example, I will still see the last
lines from the old messages file

Speaking of anacron: I used one of the preset configuration schemes
(Scientific Workstation) on one hamm machine and noticed that it has both cron

The problem wasn't what I thought it was..:-)
Most of my PCs are turned on when necessary and turned off
when not. The default Debian setup is to do run-parts
/etc/cron.daily in the morning (6:42am), but my PCs are most
likely to be turned off at that time. So no rotations are
done. (I can cha

I believe that in Debian 1.3 (or was it 1.2?), the cron
package came with crontabs that will rotate the log files in
/var/log. This does not appear to be the case with Debian
2.0. Has the crontabs become a separate package? Or do one
have to write his/her own?
