Hello,
While looking at the Webinator logs, I noticed that monitor.log is always in use, and it's getting large. Is there a way to rename it so it starts a new log file?
Thanks, John

On windows you have to stop the monitor service to rotate the log. Then restart the service.
On *nix you need to run
monitor -k
to stop the monitor after rotating the log. Restart it with
monitor
or just let it restart itself automatically the next time it's needed.

The monitor is needed but will restart on it's own as needed.
