Re: [FW1] fw stop/start the only way to rotate logfiles



The only log switches that can be given to fw al below:

# ./fw --help | grep log
fw log [-f[t]] [-c action] [-l] [-start time]       # display log
       [-end time] [-b stime etime] [-h hostname]   #
       [log-file]                                   #
fw logexport [-f] [-d delimiter] [-i input log file]# export log to
ascii file
       [-n] [-o output ascii file]                  #
       [-r records chunk size]                      #
