There's been a similar problem before, but with a processor involved, since you don't have a config file, no processor should be run. Can it be that you had a config file for this svlogd before?, it's that svlogd doesn't reduce the number of old log files if there are already more than configured, see http://bugs.debian.org/369840 Does the number of logfiles still increase? If yes, does `sv hup dnscache/log` help? Thanks, Gerrit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
