how to logrotate /var/log/btmp?
So, I got /var/tmp/btmp filling up on one of my NASes (running latest OS6). I know why (so don't start off by telling me something bad is happening, I have fixed that)./ What was concerning was that the file was allowed to grow (apparently) without bound on my limited root file system. I added an entry to rotatelogs.d but couldn't even tell if that was the proper mechanism. Here is what I created: /var/log/btmp { monthly size 100M create 0600 root utmp rotate 2 }4.2KViews0likes10Comments
