I saw the e-mail below and have a question: I'm currently using Caldera's Linux to host my syslog-ng. I currently use a cron script similar to below to stop, rotate my logs and restart the service (obviously not ideal, there's a brief moment where I lose messages). When I look at the man page for kill I do not see a -HUP switch. Does anyone know if this is just an undocumented option, or is it not available? If not, any ideas on what I can do to fix this? Thanks for any help you can provide, JonM Balazs Scheidler wrote:
I'm trying to set up syslog-ng to rotate it's logs with logrotate. One question this brings to mind is whether syslog-ng will restart with the HUP signal.
#/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog-ng.pid`
yes.
