Re: Multilog failing to rotate logfiles

Otavio Exel,

well it turns out that 1300 BRT time is midnight JST time (Japan) and I 
had a cron set as follows:
0  0 * * * /usr/local/bin/svc -a /service/qmail-smtpd/log
0  0 * * * /usr/local/bin/svc -a /service/qmail-send/log
0  0 * * * /usr/local/bin/svc -a /service/qmail-pop3d/log

Now I am positive that it said to do this in the LWQ guide to set up 
Qmail with Daemontools.  I went back and looked at it, and I can't find 
it anywhere there.  Will this cause my log files from not rotating on 
their own when they get to 10 MB?

thanks
Robert
