Servus,

What is the advantage of having larger log files?  Why not rotate daily?
You don't want to rotate once it reaches 2GB.  You should be doing it way
before then.  Large log files are harder to search through and make sense
of.

sense is to have one file that can be webalized cause webalizersystem is expecting one file. dont want to rescript the webalizersystem which is running on a lot maschines, just this server is problematical...

Hi, just my little 2 cent : we run webalizer with logfiles rotated with logrotate. The trick is just not to rotate the logfile (logrotate) more often than you run webalizer on it. Otherwise webalizer misses the chunk that is rotated away. But webalizer can intelligently reprocess the same file, and is smart enough to skip what it has already seen before. Better, use the "firstaction" config parameter of logrotate, to run webalizer on the logfile *before* you rotate it.
