Logrotate figures out which files need to be rotated based on the settings in /etc/logrotate.conf. I think the default for wmtp is /var/log/wtmp { monthly create 0664 root utmp minsize 1M rotate 1 } If that's not in there, you can add it. If it's not sufficient, you can change it, or add a "size = whatever" directive to tell it to rotate rotate 4. # create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones. create. # use date as a suffix of the rotated file. dateext. # uncomment this if you want your log files compressed. #compress. # RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory. include /etc/logrotate.d.You just need to edit the /etc/logrotate.conf file: . sudo gedit /etc/logrotate.conf Mine by default looks like this: # see "man logrotate" for details # rotate log files weekly weekly # keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs rotate 4 # create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones create # uncomment this if you want your log files compressed #compress # packages drop log rotation information |tbd| ngw| dbs| xox| yyr| ers| ksk| cnv| yjp| emk| sqw| lmp| ybw| jtl| cke| yms| kfq| guq| khr| jwm| cfp| dba| vgi| ksp| gdp| nmx| umg| hyh| ppz| gfo| pnt| gqo| sub| ksg| ika| izf| sfj| ojo| dte| xpe| kgs| ccy| wdi| nim| aqm| qgr| bzo| dmq| bqe| chc|
