Description Helge Deller 2007-11-13 12:01:58 UTC 
It would be nice, if the nxserver log file (/var/log/nxserver.log) could be 
added to the logrotate functionality, since it grows by ~1.7MB per day in our 
usage.

We created the new file "/etc/logrotate.d/nx" with the following content:
/var/log/nxserver.log {
    rotate 4
    size=10M
    notifempty
    missingok
    sharedscripts
    copytruncate
}

After that, the log file is nicely rotated.

Could you please add this file (or a similiar one) to the freenx-0.7.0-2.fc7 
rpm package ?

New rawhide version has this.  Will work back down to 8, 7, 6, soon.
Comment 2 Helge Deller 2007-11-19 15:16:43 UTC 
Hi Jon,
Thanks !
I think you can even reduce the sie to "size=4MB". Makes it easier and faster 
to read the files with "vi".
Regards, Helge

Oops, hadn't actually imported and built that change.  0.7.1-2 has this. :)
