We'd like to rotate our syslog file more often than daily (e.g. every =

four

hours). Are there any special steps we should take to do this so as not =

to

interfere with logging?

E.g., can we

1) simply rename the file and wait a few minutes and/or until a new file

with the old name appears? 2) Or do we need to stop sl4, rename the =

file

and then restart it? (Can we do this programmatically?)

Or...?
