- logrotate for Debian
- --------------------
-
- Note that logrotate is not the only log rotation program on a typical
- Debian system. sysklogd uses its own log rotation scripts which can be
- found in /etc/cron.daily/sysklogd and /etc/cron.weekly/sysklogd
-
- Logrotate prerotate/postrotate/firstaction/lastaction scripts are
- currently executed by giving the whole script to "sh -c" thus:
-
- execl("/bin/sh", "sh", "-c", script, "sh", logfn, NULL);
-
- This might change in future versions.
