  • echocfg log rotation?

    From poindexter FORTRAN@REALITY to All on Fri Mar 31 12:23:17 2023
    I just noticed this in my echocfg.exe program after an upgrade:

    Synchronet FidoNet Config v3.20 c:\sbbs\ctrl\sbbse ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░╔[■][?]══════════════════════════════════════════════╗░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░║ Global Settings ║░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░╠════════════════════════════════════════════════════╣░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░║ │Mailer Type Binkley/FLO ║░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░║ │Log Level Notice ║░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░║ │Log Timestamp Format %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S ║░░░░ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░║ │Maximum Log File Size 10M bytes, keep 10 ║░░░░


    I was trying to get logrotate set up - it looks like echocfg can do its own log rotation now, is this correct?

    Correct. It's doesn't compress/archive them, but yeah, it'll rotate them (and delete the old ones).
