Custom logs sizing
-
Hi guys.
i wanted to know. if I've created a custom log on the pfsense box, do i have an option to add it to the sizing mechanism of the other logs? so it won't be able to grow larger than 512KB? or should i use another method for rotation?

The log files maintained by pfSense are binary circular log ("clog") files. If you make a plain text log on your own, there isn't a way to have pfSense manage that log in any way (rotation, size limit, etc) at the moment.
Perhaps with the syslog-ng package, but I haven't tried that.
