[syslog-ng] Re: Defunct processes when doing log rotation

thanks for the suggestion. I guess we can try it. though I wonder if this works with our version of syslog-ng. The documentation here suggests that " Syslog-ng 2.0 on the other hand restarts the program if it exits" http://www.balabit.com/products/syslog_ng/reference-2.0/syslog-ng.html/index...

You could have your log rotation process kill the readlog before rotating.
