RE: [webmin-l] Rotating webmin logs

[Larry G. <Li...@IS...>]

Hi Neil,

I am running Red Hat and added a file to /etc/logrotate.d/ called webmin.
The file has the following contents:

/var/webmin/miniserv.error /var/webmin/miniserv.log /var/webmin/webmin.log {
    missingok
    notifempty
    sharedscripts
    postrotate
	/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/webmin/miniserv.pid 2>/dev/null` 2>
/dev/null || true
    endscript
}

It is the same contents as httpd logrotate.
