Can anyone see any harm with this in syslog.conf?

*.*		/var/log/messages
*.*		/var/log/daily-messages


I normally log _everything_ to /var/log/messages - which used to get cleared
down on a daily basis... Now I archive all the logs on a monthly basis, but
I'd still like a seperate file which gets cleared down on a daily basis - so
/var/log/daily-messages would get processed and cleared daily...

The above 'appears' to work? - Can anyone see any nasty problems with doing
it? (Before I stick it on our other 6 FreeBSD boxes?)

Regards,

Karl Pielorz
