ok, this is a little off (but at least near) topic, has anyone considered using "logrotate" from the Linux world. It allows for a pre and post section for commands to handle most of what I think is being considered here. and something else that has struck me as odd, (coming from a Linux world) why is there not a consistent centralized log rotating function within FreeBSD? question comes from finding "*.old", "*.yesterday", "*.1" log files.
