newbie: rotating logs
newbie admin: running FreeBSD 4.7 Stable I am having a bit of trouble finding this. Is there a FAQ or tutorial that discusses the standard convention of rotating log files? I am seeing my /var/log/messages and /var/log/maillog files cycling nicely, but I would like to know how to add other log files to this process. Thanks in advance. - Noah -- Net Enabled (http://www.enabled.com) ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
