If you're me, you'll do it days ago and have to reconstruct the scripts by hand because you only have a ten-day tape rotation. <sigh> At least I had an old version of the main script to start from. I had to recreate from scratch the little twelve-line Perl script that spits out a date stamp for yesterday.
Hmm, looking at the size of these log files, I may have to start doing things a little differently. I had been taking the hourly firewall logs (some over a gigabyte in size) and grepping out just the entries I needed into a composite daily log. But, that looks like it may be over the 2GB max file size. I may need to further process the log files to shrink the daily aggregate file: the Fortigate log entries are amazingly verbose, there's a lot I can throw out and still keep all the data I need.
