Hi guys,

Interesting problem. I'm trying to use Cron/Webmin to rotate the Lasso log
file, that is: /tmp/LassoService8.out

The idea is to stop the file becoming too large - and yes, I do realise
that I should turn off error logging on production servers, etc. ;-)

The interesting thing is, that when the rotation completes, the logfile is
0 bytes as you would expect. But as soon as Lasso logs something new to the
supposedly truncated file, it jumps back to its original size, seemingly
ignoring that fact that I tried to make it "empty".

Running a command such as
cat /dev/null > /tmp/LassoService8.out
has the same result: file appears empty, but any Lasso logging activity
will pump it straight back up.

A full Lasso restart does in fact empty the log file completely, but
obviously I'm trying to avoid that.

Anyone any suggestions?

Cheers

Pier
