Yes, I understand that. But the point is; why is this broken logrotate
script shipped by default with OpenVas (and actually, GSA) on kali ?
because "kali" without ever used it seems to be a broken distribution
when they are even not capable to write a working logrotate script which
sends a SIGHUP to the process to actually get the filehandle closed
[root@openvas:~]$ cat /etc/logrotate.d/openvas-gsa
# logrotate for openvas-manager
/var/log/openvas/openvas-gsa.log {
rotate 4
weekly
compress
delaycompress
missingok
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP gsad > /dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
[root@openvas:~]$ cat /etc/logrotate.d/openvas-manager
# logrotate for openvas-manager
/var/log/openvas/openvasmd.log {
rotate 4
weekly
compress
delaycompress
missingok
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP openvasmd > /dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
[root@openvas:~]$ cat /etc/logrotate.d/openvas-scanner
# logrotate for openvas
/var/log/openvas/openvassd.log {
rotate 4
weekly
compress
delaycompress
missingok
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP openvassd > /dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
Probably a question best posted to Kali forums, though
yes
