syslogd-listfiles − list system logfiles
syslogd-listfiles [ −a | −−all ] [ −−auth ] [ −f config file ] [ −s pattern ] [ −−large nnn ] [ −−news ] [ −w | −−weekly ]
Sysklogd provides a modern mechanism to log system messages. This mechanism is controlled by the file /etc/syslog.conf. Messages are divided into logfiles which can grow quite big. Therefore the logfiles need to be rotated once per day, per week or per month. On a Debian GNU/Linux system most of the files are rotated once per week.
This program helps the rotation script to determine which logfiles need to be rotated and when. It takes care of news logfiles that are handled by the news.daily script from INN. In conjunction with the scripts in /etc/cron.daily and /etc/cron.weekly it takes care of files with sensitive information.
By default a list of files for daily rotation is generated. At the moment this option only reflects entries that contain "*.*" as facility.priority.
−a, −−all
List all logfiles and ignore all other rules.
−f config file
Specify an alternative configuration file instead of /etc/syslog.conf, which is the default.
−s pattern
Specify a regular expression for files that must not be listed.
|
−−auth |
Only list files containing sensitive information such as the one containing auth.*. |
−−large nnn
Define the filesize for a large file. The size is provided in bytes. This value defaults to 1 megabyte.
−−ignore−size
Don’t rotate files whose file size is larger than the regular limit (see above). This option is useful if you are postprocessing logfiles which would break if log files are rotated at a different date/time.
|
−−news |
Don’t exclude news logfiles which are normally handled by the news.daily script from INN. |
−w, −−weekly
Generate the list for weekly rotation.
