Is there any way to link the current version of a file to a standard
location. If not would it be possible to add this functionality. Here is
an example of what i have:
destination d_default {
file("/var/adm/messages.$YEAR.$MONTH.$DAY") ;
} ;
However, I have to recreate the symlink in cron every day:
ln -s /var/adm/messages.2004.01.13 /var/adm/messages
it would be nice if there was an option:
destination d_default {
file("/var/adm/messages.$YEAR.$MONTH.$DAY"
soft_link("/var/adm/messages")) ;
} ;
if this or something like this has been implemented please let me know.
