You would still need some way of telling BIND to close and reopen its log files, or it would go on writing to the old (renamed) ones. That is, unless you used the "copytruncate" option for Linux's logrotate (or "-c" in Solaris' logadm, etc.) which of course has a window for data loss. You wouldn't want to specify versions/size for the channel in named.conf if you went this way, of course, or you would get horrid interactions. -- Chris Thompson Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
