1 Hi,
2 I have the following file as /etc/logrotate.d/denyhosts
3 /var/log/denyhosts {
4 missingok
5 notifempty
6 create 0640 root root
7 sharedscripts
8 prerotate
9 /etc/init.d/denyhosts stop
10 endscript
11 postrotate
12 /etc/init.d/denyhosts start
13 endscript
14 }
15
16 But this causes errors
17 reading config info for /var/log/denyhosts
18 error: denyhosts:1 lines must begin with a keyword or a filename (possibly in double quotes)
19 error: denyhosts:2 unexpected text
20 error: denyhosts:3 unexpected text
21 error: denyhosts:4 unexpected text
22 error: denyhosts:5 unexpected text
23 error: denyhosts:prerotate or postrotate without endscript
24
25 I appreciate any help on this.
26 Many thanks,
27 Helmut.
