(RADIATOR) Log Management

[Yehudi Binder]

Hi Hugh,

	Thanks for the tip, I added it to my configuration, as per below:

<AuthLog FILE>
	Identifier logfile
	Filename %L/logfile-%Y-%m-%d
	LogSuccess 1
	LogFailure 1
	SuccessFormat %l:%U:OK
	FailureFormat %l:%U:%0:FAIL 
</AuthLog>
AuthLog logfile


Regards,

Yehudi

Hello Yehudi -

I generally recommend a simpler approach which is to use "special 
characters" like this:


LogDir /var/log/radius

LogFile %L/logfile-%Y-%m-%d


which will create a new log file every night at midnight of the form

	/var/log/radius/logfile-2004-06-15

You can use any of the special characters listed in section 6.2 of the 
Radiator 3.9 reference manual ("doc/ref.html").

Then you can archive and/or delete the old files at your leisure.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
