I put this right before the syslog renaming stuff.
bin/purgeplay lib/etc/players.astro >> log/purgelog 2>&1
if [ ! -r players.new ]; then
DATE=`date`;
echo "Error in purgeplay: $DATE" >> syslog
else
DATE=`date +%y%m%d.%H%M%S`;
mv lib/etc/players.astro lib/etc/players.$DATE
gzip lib/etc/players.$DATE
mv players.new lib/etc/players.astro
fi
Replace "lib/etc/players.astro" with the path and name of your pfile. This
also assumes that your purgeplay creates "players.new". We're running an
older version of circle thats been modified quite a bit over the years.
Also, a time-stamped copy of the pfile is created every time this runs, so
you'll want to clean them out periodically.
