RE: [FW1] Log file rotation on IP600




Hi Lars and Jimmy,

Dont use the fw logswitch on an IP650 as you will find that it does not
rotate all of the log files. Credit goes to Nokia for the following
scripts....

-[snip]-
This script should be run from cron daily, weekly, or whenever. It will
rotate all the other log files FireWall-1 generates (these are plaintext
ones) as fw logswitch only rotates the security policy and accounting logs.
Note that not all log files will exist in all configurations.

The following script should work for FireWall-1 4.1:

#!/bin/sh
DATE=`date +%Y-%m-%d.%H:%M:%S`
cd $FWDIR/log
mv fwd.elg           fwd.${DATE}.elg
mv cpmgmt.aud        cpmgmt.${DATE}.aud
mv mdq.elg           mdq.${DATE}.elg
mv polsrvd.elg       polsrvd.${DATE}.elg
mv netsod.elg        netsod.${DATE}.elg
mv sam.log           sam.${DATE}.log
mv aclientd.elg      aclientd.${DATE}.elg
mv aftpd.elg         aftpd.${DATE}.elg
mv ahttpd.elg        ahttpd.${DATE}.elg
mv ahttpdauth1.elg   ahttpdauth1.${DATE}.elg
mv ahttpdauth2.elg   ahttpdauth2.${DATE}.elg
mv arlogind.elg      arlogind.${DATE}.elg
mv asmtpd.elg        asmtpd.${DATE}.elg
mv atelnetd.elg      atelnetd.${DATE}.elg

The following script should work for FireWall-1 4.0 and earlier:

#!/bin/sh
DATE=`date +%Y-%m-%d.%H:%M:%S`
cd $FWDIR/log
mv fwd.log      fwd.${DATE}.log
mv fwui.log     fwui.${DATE}.log
mv mdq.log      mdq.${DATE}.log
mv sam.log      sam.${DATE}.log
mv aclientd.log aclientd.${DATE}.log
mv aftpd.log    aftpd.${DATE}.log
mv ahttpd.log   ahttpd.${DATE}.log
mv arlogind.log arlogind.${DATE}.log
mv asmtpd.log   asmtpd.${DATE}.log
mv atelnetd.log atelnetd.${DATE}.log
