Good day,

I was wondering what the rotation schedule was by default on a toaster for the logs like /var/log/qmail/smtp/current? I am running the spamdyke stats script against it, but was wanting to get a view more by day.

Thanks!

I believe that log rotation is based not on date/time but on file size and that the max log file size is set in /var/qmail/control/logsize.



That seems to be correct, as all my logs (old) are 975K.


Would it be considered a bad move to change the log rotation to a time period (if this is even possible)?

Yes. I don't think it's easily done.

Or I guess I could (and should) just write a script to parse for the current date with the tai64nlocal tool.

I'd go this route. The qmlog script does some date processing, and might be useful (using -nl option?) as a front end to the stats program. I don't think it'd give you precise date boundaries though. You might consider enhancing qmlog to do this.


Thanks.
