	Hi guys,

	I am running Firewall1 3.0 Build 3045.
	
	Instead of using logswitch, we are implementing the log rotation
script suggested by the phoneboy sites.
	The script moves the logfiles to oldlog files and restarts the "fwd"
daemon.  Yesterday, when the script ran
	it failed to start the daemon.  The strange thing is, everything is
working fine - all the traffic is passing with
	xlation.  Could some one explain why - I thought fwd is the process
that is responsible for firewalling.

	Thanks for help in advance.
