Subject: [FW-1] Log files

Hi to all,

does anyone the difference between this logs files ?
xx.logptr       (log pointer file ---  kinda like an index for faster
searching)
xx.log            (the log file)
xxxxx.alogptr      (log pointer file for any rule that uses account logging)
xxxxx.alog           (the account log file)

You make the call of what you want to keep if you delete the .logptr file it
will take longer to search the file as .logptr file will have to be
recreated if you want to reference the orginal log file.

If I do a save of my log from the Check Point Log Viewer  in my $FWDIR\Log I
found the xxxx.log and xxxx.logptr, instead when I
do a fw logswitch  in my $FWDIR\Log I found the xxxx.log, xxxx.logptr,
xxxx.alogptr, xxxx.alog. Why ?
Which files can I delete to keep my log history ?



thank's
Marco Fini
