Re: [mod-security-users] Rotating Concurrent Log Files

[Chuck N. <chu...@gm...>]

It's starting to make sense to me now that I've read the replies. I did see
that you could use * in logrotate but wasn't sure what to do with the
leftover directories. I can just have a cron job delete them like Homesh
recommended.

I originally had set up a cron job to gzip the entire day's directory and
have logrotate operate on that every so often.

Thanks for the help!
