Hi, I have a couple of questions regarding logging. Firstly, what do other people do in terms of status file rotation/truncation? I ask this because I noticed lpq was running very very slowly the other day, but couldn't figure out why. I eventually worked out that it was due to the sizes of the status.<printer> files and making these very small cured the problem. Obviously it's better to keep these files as short as possible to prevent this slowness, but I want to keep the information around. I just wondered what other people did regarding this. Secondly, I have the log file specified in my lpd.conf file using 'default lf=...' However, I notice that this file hasn't been updated since Dec 8, which is when I think I stopped running lpd in debug mode. Should I expect this file to log server activity during the normal course of things? Running checkpc doesn't report any problems. Thanks in advance for any info.
