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.
No idea about cronolog, but the logrotate program allows you to use a
date-based extension for your rotated files, rather than the normal
blah.log.1, blah.log.2, etc. Use the 'dateext' keyword in your
logrotate.conf file.
"dateext: Archive old versions of log files adding a daily extension
like YYYYMMDD instead of simply adding a number."
