I did some testing, and this is what I came up with that seems to
work. Original had just tried deleting the log file, but then later
usage of stunnel would not add to the file. truncate seems to keep
the file in a state were stunnel will continue. I used 473 since that
is the size of my stunnel.log after an original startup. I also just
used 50000 as a limit size for no real reason.
if [ `ls -l /var/log/stunnel.log | awk '{print $5}'` -gt 50000 ] ; then
truncate -c -s 473 /var/log/stunnel.log
fi
Don't know if you current setup has awk or truncate, so it might
also add a little size. Probable other ways to get the file size, and
you could then run it with cron, or add a sleep option, and have it
call itself.
