Hi folks
Has anyone ever wondered about the number of logfiles in /var/log/ntpstats. Those are
built and cycled by the ntpsimpl package. Unfortunately they don't seem to get removed
after a while, although this is suggested by /etc/cron.daily/ntpsimpl. Here is a
modified version which appears to work correctly in Bering 1.x
#!/bin/sh
# the default Debian ntp.conf enables logging of various statistics to the
# /var/log/ntpstats directory. the daemon automatically changes to a new
# datestamped set of files at midnight, so all we need to do is delete old
# ones, and compress the ones we're keeping so disk usage is controlled
LOGDIR=/var/log/ntpstats
if [ -d $LOGDIR ]
then
# only keep a week's depth of these
# beware, this is Bering 1.2 Busybox dialect
rm -f `find $LOGDIR -type f -mtime -7`;
# compress whatever is left to save space
filelist=`find $LOGDIR -name loopstats.\* -type f | grep -v .gz`;
[ "$filelist" != "" ] && gzip $filelist ;
filelist=`find $LOGDIR -name peerstats.\* -type f | grep -v .gz`;
[ "$filelist" != "" ] && gzip $filelist ;
fi
Have fun
