Thanks Shawn. Do you still use cronolog? If not, what are you presently using?

I'm also wondering, does cronolog allow me to rotate logs without renaming every one? I'd like them to keep the same name so that they don't get backed up repeatedly with rsync each time the name changes.

Sorry for being lazy and not looking this up myself. ;)

I used cronolog (http://cronolog.org/) for logs for some time and found it to be very flexable and no restart is needed after initial configuration. It was very flexible at where to place the logs, how to name them and most importantly how to rotate them.

    It appears that there are 2 ways of rotating apache logs.

    Logrotate can be used, in which case apache needs to be restarted after
    the logs are rotated.

    There is also a rotatelogs program included with apache that controls
    log rotation
    (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/rotatelogs.html).

    Does anyone have a preference, or know which is considered to be best
    practice? I'm inclined to lean toward the later.
