1 # configuration file for newsyslog
4 # Entries which do not specify the '/pid_file' field will cause the
5 # syslogd process to be signalled when that log file is rotated. This
6 # action is only appropriate for log files which are written to by the
7 # syslogd process (ie, files listed in /etc/syslog.conf). If there
8 # is no process which needs to be signalled when a given log file is
9 # rotated, then the entry for that file should include the 'N' flag.
11 # The 'flags' field is one or more of the letters: BCGJNUWZ or a '-'.
13 # Note: some sites will want to select more restrictive protections than the
14 # defaults. In particular, it may be desirable to switch many of the 644
15 # entries to 640 or 600. For example, some sites will consider the
16 # contents of maillog, messages, and lpd-errs to be confidential. In the
17 # future, these defaults may change to more conservative ones.
19 # logfilename [owner:group] mode count size when flags [/pid_file] [sig_num]
