I just configured ntp on a few RH linux hosts and everything appears to be working. To complete the installation I want to rotate the ntp logfile /var/log/ntp. I have looked at a few references and there seems to be disagreement on the best approach: ALTERNATIVE #1: use logrotate with file in /etc/logrotate.d (see code snip below) ALTERNATIVE #2: use ntp.conf "monitor" command "filegen" Are there any suggestions for ntp log file rotations ? FILE: /etc/ntp.conf .... logfile /var/log/ntp ------- [EOF] FILE: /etc/logrotate.d/ntp /var/log/ntp { daily rotate 7 notifempty # ntpd doesn't handle SIGHUP properly copytruncate } [EOF] Brock Wolfe ___________________________________________________________ "The problem is not that there are problems.
