Recently, I was asked to install it on a 2.7 machine - #>the problem is that it is compiled for elf. Is there any way of #>converting elf format to aout? (the utility "elf2aout" dosen't seem #>to want to know about it). I've also tried a build of logrotate on #>the 2.7 system without any luck. Why down't you use newsyslog???? I hope it's easier to use... Sorry I did not answer your question the way you wanted it and I'll be interested in hearing what the guys say. For me I use newsyslog to do the rotation. -wash -- Odhiambo Washington Systems Administrator Inter-Connect Ltd. 3rd Flr The Chancery Valley Rd PO Box 39519 Nairobi, KENYA Tel: 254 2 711140 Fax: 254 2 718418 A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
