    Hey Jellf,

     

     

    'history' command should say about the last 500 lines implemented

     

    'last' command will show who logged in

     

     

    Cheers,

     

    Roger

    Hi. This log entry is caused by cron (/etc/crontab), which executes /etc/cron.daily/logrotate at ~04:02 by default. The logrotate configuration files specify that logrotate should restart after files are rotated. So what you are seeing is a message from logrotate restarting after the log-rolling process has completed.
