-o <file> Output log file to write the data to. -s <sec> Rotation interval in seconds, default are 86400 seconds. -f Forced log rotation even no data is written. -z Compress (gzip) the rotated file. -g <num> Generations (number of files to keep). -u <name> Become another user, e.g. www-data. -p Writes data also to stdout (for piped logging). EXAMPLE
TransferLog "|qsrotate -f -z -g 3 -o /dest/file -s 86400" The name of the rotated file will be /dest/filee.YYYYmmddHHMMSS where YYYYmmddHHMMSS is the system time at which the data has been rotated. NOTE
