Re: [cobalt-users] RAQ3 Logs

Hi:-)

I just enter by telnet, root and go to /etc/logrotate.d or
/etc/logrotate.onboot folders..

There, I type : man logrotate
and appears the following:

LOGROTATE(8)                                         LOGROTATE(8)

NAME
       logrotate - rotates, compresses, and mails system logs

SYNOPSIS
       logrotate   [-dv]   [-f|--force]  [-s|--state  file]  con­
       fig_file+

DESCRIPTION
       logrotate is designed to ease  administration  of  systems
       that generate large numbers of log files.  It allows auto<AD>
       matic rotation, compression, removal, and mailing  of  log
       files.   Each  log  file  may  be  handled  daily, weekly,
       monthly, or when it grows too large.

       Normally, logrotate is run as a daily cron job.   It  will
       not modify a log multiple times in one day unless the cri<AD>
       terium for that log is based on the log's size and  logro<AD<AD>
       tate  is  being run multiple times each day, or unless the
       -f or -force option is used.

But I don´t know how do it to setup the LOG to rotate weekly .-(
Do you know what is the exact comand to do it ?

Many many thanks in advance.-)

regards
Fabian
