    Making slimserver open & close its log file

    Non-unix users, move along - there's nothing to see!

    I've just added a logrotate entry for slimserver. The postrotate entry is currently /etc/init.d/slimserver restart, which just kills slimserver and restarts it. I'm unlikely to be listening to music when this happens, but it would be a pain if I was. I don't suppose there's some way of getting a running slimserver to close and open its log file by sending it a signal, is there?
    Some people think the title of this song is irrelevant,
    but it's not irrelevant - it's a hippopotamus.

    This is why we have a unix-specific forum.

      Oh, erm, yes. Sorry, I'll get my coat!
