Hello happy True64 managers,

I wander if anyone know if it exists for DU something like newsyslog of
Netbsd
or logrotate of linux.
I .E. system that prevent logfile for growing till it fill completely
the disk.

On NetBSD the newsyslog system permit to compress a log file if it's
size is over
a theshold defined in a conf file. In the conf file you also tell how
many compressed
file you want to keep.

On linux the logrotate system work quite the same way excet that it
doesn't compress file.

Is there a equivalent on DU?

Any help help will be greatly appreciated. I'll post asummary of all
answers (sure I'll get many!!!!).

Regards.
