This is consistent with how glibc behaves, but I didn't know that at first, so I kept it running in a "while true" loop to keep it from dying on me - it kept looping until the next day, when it started a new output file. My solution then was to move to hourly splitting. Anyway, this wasn't meant as an all-out criticism on syslog-ng. It was just meant to illustrate the point that, while I believe sending the logs straight to a syslog server, it still needs some thought, as is the case with anything related to computer security. -- Mikael Olsson, Clavister AB Storgatan 12, Box 393, SE-891 28 ÖRNSKÖLDSVIK, Sweden Phone: +46 (0)660 29 92 00 Mobile: +46 (0)70 26 222 05 Fax: +46 (0)660 122 50 WWW: http://www.clavister.com _______________________________________________ LogAnalysis mailing list LogAnalysisat_private http://lists.shmoo.com/mailman/listinfo/loganalysis
