Odd. The code seems right, but I can confirm your problem.
The "shredcycles" setting isn't being copied across from the outer block
into the inner blocks. The following works:
/tmp/test {
shred
shredcycles 1
missingok
monthly
rotate 1
}
But the following doesn't:
shred
shredcycles 1
/tmp/test {
missingok
monthly
rotate 1
}
Found it. The function copyLogInfo() doesn't copy across all the settings.
