I am able to rotate any log file manually via logroatate like this:logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/my-hourly-fileI want to know how to perform the same action on FreeBSD 8? My investigation shows that newsyslog can be used for this purpose. If so how can I download and install newsyslog?Update: I think newsyslog has been installed and modifying the /etc/newsyslog.conf file will be enough for automatic installation. But how can I trigger it manually?Update2: when I search all newsyslog words starting from /, I only found /etc/rc.d/newsyslog script. Inside the script I realized that newsyslog command is defined under /usr/sbin/newsyslog. But there is not newsyslog file under /usr/sbin/newsyslog.I am stuck that how I can install newsyslog package into FreBSD 8
