Hello,
I have some problems regarding rotating the log files in /var/log/samba:
I use RH 6.2.
The default entry is /etc/logrotate.d/samba:
/var/log/samba/log.* {
rotate 5
weekly
notifempty
missingok
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd
endscript
}
If I would like to change the "rotate" entry from 5 to 1, I always get
an error:
error: samba:2 bad rotation count'1 '
Apparently you can't just change these values...
I've tried restarting syslog, but no luck.
Any ideas?
