--- Comment #1 from Antoine hashar Musso has...@free.fr ---
As root, I could not change the ownership of a log file on the NFS share:
$ sudo touch /data/project/logs/logrotatetest.log
$ ls -l /data/project/logs/logrotatetest.log
$ -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 0 May 2 08:49 /data/project/logs/logrotatetest.log
$ sudo chown udp2log:udp2log logrotatetest.log
chown: changing ownership of `logrotatetest.log': Invalid argument
$
`copytruncate` would solve that since the file is copied and then its content
removed. But that would mean losing some logs sent between the two operations,
I dont think this is acceptable for production.
`nocreate` would not attempt to recreate the log files. That would only work if
HUP signal sent to udp2log actually recreate the file. I believe that is the
case since when the files are rotated and recreated by log rotated, the inode
changed and thus udp2log must be reopening them, possibly recreating it.
