Since I fixed that, the logfiles are rotated properly.
Yes - the init scripts signal the daemon via it's pidfile. When the log rotates, logrotate HUP's the daemon (/etc/init.d/clamav-daemon sends a HUP), causing the daemon to reopen it's logfile. No pidfile, no HUP sent. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Iron Law of Distribution: Them that | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | has, gets. | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
