if you have "logrotate" on your machine, you might also give that
a try. I place a file with content like this in /etc/logrotate.d/:
/opt/chroot/nsd/log/server.log {
rotate 30
compress
daily
dateext
maxage 36
missingok
copytruncate
size +4M
}
You can configure it in many different ways, like compressing files, you
can add your own post- or pre-processing scripts and more.
I use a script that watches the server.log for different regular
expressions and mails me if they match; as the script stops when the
watched file gets removed ("is rotated"), the copytruncate argument
helps me in this case.
Regards,
Bernd.
