I currently have a daemon logging each day's worth of activity into a separate daily log with the daemon-month.date.year format. Unfortunately, I cannot change the options of HOW it is logged or what it is named.
I really only want to keep a weeks worth of logs, and have tried to use logrotate to handle all the rotation and removal. In short, it doesn't seem to be working. From what I can tell, logrotate is better suited at rotating a single log file, not logs that change the filename daily (such as an apache log). I guess the last resort would be to create some sort of shell script that would run in cron once a day and delete the oldest file in the log directory. Any other ideas that I might be missing? Thanks. -- :wq! Matthew Daubenspeck http://www.oddprocess.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
