 <strong>NAME</strong>
      rotatelogs - rotate Apache logs without having to  kill  the
      server

 <strong>SYNOPSIS</strong>
      <strong>rotatelogs</strong> <em>logfile rotationtime</em> [ <em>offset</em> ]

 <strong>DESCRIPTION</strong>
      <strong>rotatelogs</strong> is a simple program for use in  conjunction  with
      Apache's piped logfile feature which can be used like this:

         TransferLog "|rotatelogs /path/to/logs/access_log 86400"

      This creates the files  /path/to/logs/access_log.nnnn  where
      nnnn  is  the  system time at which the log nominally starts
      (this time will always be a multiple of the  rotation  time,
      so you can synchronize cron scripts with it).  At the end of
      each rotation time (here  after  24  hours)  a  new  log  is
      started.

 <strong>OPTIONS</strong>
      <em>logfile</em>
           The path plus basename of the logfile. The suffix .nnnn
           is automatically added.

      <em>rotationtime</em>
           The rotation time in seconds.

      <em>offset</em>
           The number of minutes offset from UTC. If omitted, zero
           is assumed and UTC is used.  For example, to use local
           time in the zone UTC -5 hours, specify a value of -300
           for this argument.
