The only work around I could think of is to use 'logrotate' (as noted in a previous post) which comes standard in most RH installs, including 8.0. If you don't have that program installed it's on the install CDs or you can get an updated version from rpmfind.net. Good luck.

I will try to open it up in an editor and see if I can append to it. I strongly think that is the application which is the limiting factor. However, is there a way to work it around? I do need to use gcc2.6.3 though.. Jake IT Dept <ismanager@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Can you open it in and append to it once it gets to 2gb? Just a thought on how to test whether it's the file system or the app that is the problem.

The problem has to do something with the filing system supported by Red Hat 8, but I could not figure it out yet. Any ideas?
