Hello,
I recently looked into a solution for rotating my TMDA logs. Here's a
solution that seems to be working well on FreeBSD 4.5. It appears that
on Linux you could do something similiar with the "logrotate" program.
1. Create your own "newsyslog.conf" configuration file. In my case, I
made it:
/home/mark/etc/newsyslog.conf
The contents look like this:
# logfilename mode count size when [ZB]
/home/mark/.tmda/log-in 600 3 100 * Z
/home/mark/.tmda/log-out 600 3 100 * Z
2. Then I created a cron entry to run every hour, using "crontab -e"
to edit my personal crontab file:
# Rotate TMDA logs
13 * * * * newsyslog -r -f /home/mark/etc/newsyslog.conf
#########
If I have other personal log files I want to rotate, I can
simply add entries to my personal "newsyslog.conf" file for them.
