FreeBSD 4.5R and syslog-ng 1.1.14. We have FreeBSD newsyslog rotate /var/log/maillog and /var/log/pop-before-smtp at 00:00. the rotation is working, we get the .0.gz files and new log files, but newsyslog-ng is apparently not receiving or reacting to the -HUP or whatever newsyslog sends after rotating the files, so logging to the new files stops at 00:00. We don't have this problem with FreeBSD syslogd. We run syslog-ng witht the standard .conf file delivered with the FreeBSD package and installed with pkg_add, with a couple of our lines added for filtering. eg, the pop-before-smtp log shows : Feb 15 00:00:00 buzzard newsyslog[2885]: logfile turned over Feb 15 03:13:45 ns1 POP3D (0000066C) logon success for nnn navymars.org from 66.26.185.182 no logging until we -HUP manually at 3:13. same situ with maillog. suggestions?
