[Dnsmasq-discuss] Logfile rotation

Hi,

 

I just started using dnsmasq on my home network. It is running on my QNAP TS-509
NAS and it works great!

 

I have a question about log rotation. I know I have to send a SIGUSR2 to perform
a log rotation but what exactly happens? How does it work? I enabled logging and
there are messages being logged. I issued a "kill -12 pid of dnsmasq" but
nothing happened. IS the log supposed to be renamed and a new one created using
the same name specified in the conf file? I've read the man page but I still
can' figure out how it works and what is supposed to happen.

 

Thanks

Don
