I also think this is a great feature to add. Just to be clear: This allows a config file to include some other file, and that other file can also include more files with additional newsyslog entries. In that sense it allows recursive includes. Note that it will detect when such recursion causes one file to end up indirectly including itself, and will reject *that* situation. So you shouldn't be able to get into an infinite loop of included files. >i would be real nice is newsyslog also supported a date based file renaming >shceme rather than the cyclic 0,1,2,3, much like the datext option in >logrotate. eg > >messages >messages.20100422 >messages.20100421 >messages.20100420 >... > >The cyclic renaming is a pain for incremental backups as all the log files >are backed up every time as their contents changes compared to their >filename I hope to do this after Gordon commits the new feature that he's implemented. I know I've said that before, but I do have some vacation time coming up soon and expect to do it then. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = drosehn_at_rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad_at_FreeBSD.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy, NY; USAReceived on Sat Apr 24 2010 - 00:57:21 UTC
