The moment after I sent my message I saw a collision in my log
file! So now I want to update my Quick Start troubleshooting
section and tell people how to prevent that. It seems like using
a global LOCKFILE would be a pain on the system since messages
would then be processed in series rather than in parallel
(right?). What is the best way to do this (i.e., the least
resource intensive)?
Thanks,
Nancy
Yes, in my system, global LOCKFILE is a luxury! In normal day
the collisions are not bother me. In emergency or in case of
debugging, well...
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail/$LOGNAME
To get the whole picture (or build one logfile):
ls -tr | xargs cat | less
The "-tr" sort the files be date, but, the logfile inside
keeps the orig order!!! (:-(
(by the way, gnu's tail(1) knows who to "-f" multi files)
Bye,
Udi
