You can use an option in named.conf to rotate the logs automatically. channel query_info { severity info; file "/var/named/data/log/named.query.log" versions 100 size 10m; print-time yes; print-category yes; };
The versions part tells bind how many versions it can keep before overwriting, and the size will tell it how big each log file can be prior to moving to the next one. It happens automatically...no reloads or anything is required.
