Hi List, I'm running PF on some FreeBSD 11.x installs and I would very much like to have daily logfiles containing the entries that land up in the pflog device. I'm having trouble switching from "max size" rotation to "once a day, regardless of size" rotation. My pflog entry in /etc/newsyslog.conf looked like this: /var/log/pflog 600 3 100 @T00 JB /var/run/pflogd.pid and after my attempted change now looks like this: /var/log/pflog 600 30 * @T00 JB /var/run/pflogd.pid but no new /var/log/pflog.0.bz2 files are created anymore. If I run the newsyslog binary manually like this : /usr/sbin/newsyslog -vCF then the /var/log/pflog.* are created / rotated. Could somebody perhaps shed some light on what I'm doing wrong here? Any help appreciated! Kind regards, Ruben
