Re: [FW-1] Automatic Saving of Log Files

[William CHAN <williamchan@FW1-NOSPAMDICKSONCYBER.COM>]

Hi James,

Thank you for your information provided in FW mailing list.

I have also set up a scheduler service on WinNT box with (SP6).  However, it
doesn't work to me.  Is there any clue?

My CKPFW-1 4.1 SP5 is installed in "D" Drive and the absolute path is
"D:\CKPFW\FW1\4.1".  When I tried to set a task in command prompt using "at"
command, it looks like this

C:\>at 11:50pm /every: %FWDIR%\bin\fw logswitch (where "%FWDIR%" is defined
in registry as "d:\ckpfw\fw1\4.1")

Even I put a double quote in at command such as "%FWDIR%\bin\fw logswitch",
it doesn't work too.

Any idea?  Thanks.

And if you do happen to be running the management module on an NT box,
you can do something similar to all the "cron" answers you've gotten
from the *nix guys using "at".  Make certain the scheduler service is
running, and run "at /?" at a command prompt to get the command line
syntax. In one case I've set up in the past, I "rotated" the logs every
8 hours at midnight, 8am, 4pm with something like:

at 12:01am /every:m,t,w,th,f,s,su fw logswitch
at 8:01am /every:m,t,w,th,f,s,su fw logswitch
at 4:01pm /every:m,t,w,th,f,s,su fw logswitch

Then do "at" by itself to view them.
