Logrotate tool

[yagizozen]

Hello everyone,

As you know, FR has a radius.log file under /var/log/radius  directory. I
noticed that inside the logrorate file, radius.log is set to rotate every
month.  Like this : 

 /var/log/radius/radius.log {
	 monthly
	 rotate 100
	 create
	missingok
	 compress
 }

This is by default. I changed this to "daily" but the problem is, I need to
restart radius everytime when the new day comes in order to write to NEW
radius.log file. If I do not restart, it tries to point the compress version
of the old radius.log.

Why is that? 

I also can not do this inside an external script. When I rename the file
inside the script, it still writes to the new renamed radius.log file. Any
suggestions or any place for me to read?

Thanks You in advance.
