hi
I have set up a spamassissin server . I need to rotate the logs in the /var/log/spamd.log file . I added the following directives in the /etc/logrotate.conf
# system-specific logs may be also be configured here. # added by agnello 4 march 08 /var/log/spamd.log { weekly compress rotate 4 }
Well i jsut want to verify what "rotate 4" really means --- according to the man pages it says "The *number* of times to rotate a logfile before removing it."
Also how do i check if these logs are actually going to be compressed and rotated .
Thanks!! all inputs will really be of great help
