I am syslogging information from a firewall to my linux box. A perl daemon is parsing this log and inputting the info to a mysql database. The log file has already grown to 188MBs+ in a little over a day. I don't need to keep the info in the file as it is parsed immediately upon receipt. Is there a way I can automatically compact the file at the end of each day? If it keeps on going it's just going to be ridiculous. Thanks
