Hi, I thought that HUPing the master smbd process (and/or the child processes) was supposed to cause the logfiles to be reopened? This does not appear to happen on our installation (2.0.4b2, Solaris 2.6). If I make a connection to a share, rename the logfile and HUP/delete the daemon (either parent or child), a new file is not created. Alternatively, how about a feature where we can signal

Hi I've got everything running OK but now have a couple of questions: I'm occasionally getting "504 server full" errors at the client and in the icecast access log. Is this caused by me exceeding the value set in the <max-listeners> section of icecast.xml for each mount point? Also, when I HUP ices it fails to properly reload the Perl module... ices catches the

running it as myself ("dan") - the same as the owner of the logfiles and of the containing folder. i did try running it as root at first, but as you probably know, you get a warning message if you try to do that. dan On Tue, 7 Dec 2004 13:03:08 -0800, Daniel <lpmusix@gmail.com> wrote: > what user are you running icecast as? > > > > > On Tue, 7 Dec 2004

Hello list. This is not a life-threatening question, but still quite important for debugging. I have the following crontab : 15 0,8,12,17 * * * /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger rotate' Because I have debug level 9, logfiles get quite large. I notice that the rotation of the logfiles goes to plan, except at 17h15. I currently have : -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 59024 Dec 2 09:36

Hi, I try to teach logwatch that some of my logfiles are relocated. E.g., mail mailog now lives in mail/info and secure has moved too auth/info. I adjusted /etc/logwatch/conf/logfiles/SERVICE.conf accordingly but logwatch does not understand. What is the right way to adapt logwatch to the new reality?

Hi, I'm setting up icecast2 on a Mac OSX. I can't get it to run because icecast complains about being unable to start logging - however, I'm pretty sure the logfiles are accessible. The relevant part of the config file is: <paths> <basedir> /Users/dan/icecasting </basedir> <logdir> /Users/dan/icecasting/logs </logdir> <webroot>

I'm running logcheck on a machine hosting a bunch of virtual machines using vserver, so I'd like to expand shell wildcards in the "logcheck.logfiles" file. So instead of entering /var/lib/vservers/v1/var/log/syslog /var/lib/vservers/v2/var/log/syslog /var/lib/vservers/v2/var/log/syslog I can enter /var/lib/vservers/*/var/log/syslog which gets expanded to the same thing as

I'm having trouble with the logging in Samba 2.2.2. I usually specify the name of the logfile on the command line (e.g., "nmbd -D -l /path/to/logfiles"). This used to work with Samba 2.2.1a but does not work anymore with Samba 2.2.2. I could not find anything about changes to the logging mechanisms in the 2.2.2 announcement, so I am wondering what's wrong here. Specifying

Dear all, I've only just joined this list, but I can't find any mention of this idea anywhere else, so I thought I'd just post here before getting too deep into programming and possibly reinventing the wheel. Here at Aber, we have around 30 unix and linux servers doing core services. Each one is maintaining its own logfiles and, for various reasons, we want to keep these on the

Greetings - Could someone confirm how to perform various upgrades on a live system running Dovecot please? Scenario 1: Change to dovecot.conf =================================== If I make a change to dovecot.conf am I right in thinking I can simply send a HUP signal to the main dovecot process to get it to re- read the configuration file and act on its revised content? Scenario 2:

Hi, I want to be certain that my apache and varnish logfiles are in strict date order when rotated. I'd like to run a sort command against them before they're compressed. I've had a look at the logrotate man page, and it looks like I can use a postrotate/endscript to do this. However, I can see any reference in the documentation for how to operate on the file. All the examples

Dear Group members! Since I have set up a Samba PDC-Server (openSUSE 11.2-64bit with default package Samba 3.4.3) approx. 8 months ago, I have encountered 3 or 4 times a severe crash of Samba. What happens is that all over a sudden Samba floods /var/log/messages and /var/log/warn with the following message (cropped out date/time/servername, etc.): smbd[19724]:

Recently I discovered some strange entries in my logfiles. Theses entries appears in /var/log/messages and /var/log/samba/log.nmbd ...

hi there, i just wondered if its possible to rotate the logfile on a per day basis instead of "logsize"... we noticed that sending a HUP to a "big" icecast server (say 10000 concurrent users) does not work well for rotating the logfile :-/ cheers basti :)

Hello! I having a problem with the permissions of some of my logfiles. It seems that when the files are rotated, the user/group is root root and the permissions are rw for root only. more info hereunder: The strange thing is that sometimes it works for one file... /var/log/cisco_acl.log /var/log/cisco_debug.log { rotate 1 notifempty #daily size 1k create 0640 root noc
