If you use Windows NT or 2000 you can use the AT command from the command prompt to schedule automatic log switch with the fw logswitch command. In NG this can be configures in the graphical interface, in the firewall advanced properties. Ricardo Marques -----Original Message----- From: Joseph J.

Ex: 0 1 * * 6 /opt/pkg/FireWall-1*/bin/fw logswitch [name of new log] (States Every Sunday @ 1am, switch the FW-1 log file to the new name) After this line, you will want to rename the new log file to something like (Date 26Mar2002-08:30), so next Sundays logswitch will not overwrite the previous Sunday's. This process is done by using a line similar to : 5 1 * * 6 mv /opt/pkg/FireWall-1*/log/[name of new log].log /var/admin/fw1/logs/`date`.log -----Original Message----- From: Network Security [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 8:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] Checkpoint FW1 sp5 The log files on our FW1 are becoming very large, too a point where they are unmanageable. We currently log everything long, is this a common practice? Also I would employ a script that would back up the logs daily and roll them over. But I am terrible at scripting, does a how-to for this procedure exist? Phone boy is a great site, but it assumes your already script proficient. ================================================= To set vacation, Out Of Office, or away messages, send an email to [email protected] in the BODY of the email add: set fw-1-mailinglist nomail ================================================= To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================= If you have any questions on how to change your subscription options, email [email protected] ================================================= ================================================= To set vacation, Out Of Office, or away messages, send an email to [email protected] in the BODY of the email add: set fw-1-mailinglist nomail ================================================= To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================= If you have any questions on how to change your subscription options, email [email protected] =================================================
