You cannot get it to rotate "on-the-fly" like other Unix-y logs - you have to stop and restart Networker. <grubmle>

I'm away from the office right now; a bit later I'll post how to limit the logfile size, but it still won't do it automatically... i.e. if the limit is 10MB, the file could grow to 100MB and would only rename the file when you stop/start Networker.

Uh.... that was supposed to read <grumble>.
