Like mergemaster >-p could auto-upgrade the lines that have both columns with values? Somewhere on one of my machines, I started on a update which made it pay attention to multiple lines, and "or" those. So: /var/log/dhcpd 640 5 5000 * JC /var/log/dhcpd " " * _at_T00 JC would mean "rotate if either condition is true". My thinking was that I might also like to: /var/log/dhcpd 640 5 1000 _at_T00 JC /var/log/dhcpd " " 5000 * JC That would say that I *generally* prefer that the log is rotated at midnight, but if something goes wild during the day then let's start rotating them faster. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = drosehn_at_rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad_at_FreeBSD.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy, NY; USAReceived on Thu May 14 2009 - 16:48:59 UTC
