ad 0feab73383 Get the correct signal type. Pointed out by Hauke Fath <hf@tangro.de> in 
bin/12453, real fix by me.

ad f93ec22c6d If configured to rotate at a specfic time and no historical log exists, then 
don't consider the age of the historical log.

lukem 279552d3db fix up various .Nm abuses: 
- keep the case consistent between the actual name and what's referenced.
  e.g, if it's `foo', don't use '.Nm Foo' at the start of a sentence.
- remove unnecessary `.Nm foo' after the first occurrence (except for
  using `.Nm ""' if there's stuff following, or for the 2nd and so on
  occurrences in a SYNOPSIS
- use Sx, Ic, Li, Em, Sq, and Xr as appropriate

tron 0012d64356 Fixed reversed result test in call to chown(2) which caused bogus 
error message.
 2000-08-22 16:23:15 +00:00
tron 815deae8b6 Use vfork(2) instead of fork(2) to create child process for "gzip" and 
wait until it terminates. Problem noted by Enami Tsugutomo on
"current-users@netbsd.org"
 2000-08-22 14:20:17 +00:00
ad a6ecf36d33 On NetBSD, the effect of the maximum age specification and specific interval 
specification are independant of one another.
 2000-08-09 13:57:22 +00:00
ad 1784978a24 - Wrap line. 
- Minor oops in a comment.
 2000-07-24 15:15:25 +00:00
ad 6afadc9fb4 Simple const. 2000-07-19 10:52:35 +00:00

 2000-07-19 07:22:53 +00:00
ad 677a105692 More work on newsyslog(8): 
- Add some comments. It might be getting a little unclear what's going on.
- Make it useful as non-root.

Also, some new features taken from FreeBSD. The last two are not well
tested yet:

- Specifing log files on the command line limits operation to those files.
- Add cyclic time specification for periodic trimming.
- Add restricted ISO-8601 time specification for periodic trimming.
 2000-07-18 15:59:24 +00:00
ad 5bf219a1a3 - Use _PATH_VARRUN. 
- Address PR 10577 from mjl: recognise '.' as user/group seperator.
 2000-07-13 11:28:50 +00:00
ad 543370583e parse(): be sure to clear *log before filling. 2000-07-11 12:06:32 +00:00
ad ef0846927c - Detail flags in manpage using a table. 
- Typo patrol.
- Add new flag, `p': keep zero'th historical log file uncompressed (plain).
  Inspired by woods' newsyslog package.
 2000-07-11 11:39:46 +00:00
ad e854f5df38 Sorry about breakage - no connectivity at evenings or weekends for me. Anyway: 
- Put back `-n' option. This is a slight improvement on its predecessor.
- More paranoid error checking.
- Fix miscellaneous buglets.

assar e2ba218ce3 print size_t as casted to (u_long) with %lu 2000-07-10 02:23:04 +00:00
aymeric 51ccad7517 newsyslog wouldn't parse the count field because sscanf return value was 
tested against the wrong value (0 != 1)

ad c9545d3e5d Back out previous two. 2000-07-07 15:42:35 +00:00
ad 136e84eb05 Redo previous slightly; add `-m' option to allow multiple instances. 2000-07-07 14:09:41 +00:00
ad 2f3d5bfcd0 Don't allow more than one instance when running as root. 2000-07-07 13:53:14 +00:00
ad e55de4b4cf Overhaul newsyslog(8). Changes: 
- Code cleanup.
- Better flowing English in manpage (in places).
- `-n' option has been removed (was mainly a debugging convenience, I think).
- Add `C' flag: create log file if one doesn't exist.
 2000-07-07 10:52:41 +00:00
cgd 1fa77b6d55 Use: 
.Sh SEE ALSO
rather than:
	.Sh "SEE ALSO"
The former is the correct form, and it makes a (barely persceptible)
difference in formatting for some output devices (e.g. 'ps').

ad 22ee5fa9d2 Shiny new manpage for newsyslog(8), based on that from FreeBSD. 1999-11-30 12:04:14 +00:00
ad 604db10508 - Add '-F' option which forces rotation of logs (from FreeBSD). 
- Add 'sigtype' field specifying signal to be sent (from FreeBSD).
- Add 'N' flag which specifies that no signal should be sent.
- Fix some breakage.
 1999-11-30 12:03:24 +00:00
ad 37a134f54b Add a new optional parameter to the configuration file, specifying the 
path to a file containing a PID to send SIGHUP to. If omitted, the default
is to signal syslogd. Idea from FreeBSD.
 1999-10-06 13:26:28 +00:00
ad b545302160 Allow use of use of ':' to separate user and group names, since elsewhere 
'.' is a valid character in user and group names. '.' still works, but
':' takes priority.

- ensure hostname from gethostname() is nul-terminated in all cases
- minor KNF
- use MAXHOSTNAMELEN over various other values/defines
- be safe will buffers that hold hostnames

jtc bea110759f Pass progname to the printf call in usage(). 1995-01-21 21:53:46 +00:00
jtc c15bd8dda9 Changed so that log entry format used when logfiles are rolled over 
matches that of syslogd(8).  This is a slightly modified version of
the patch Thorsten Lockert supplied with PR #684.

Changed manpage to reflect the fact that we are using gzip instead
compress.
