How to Put Dates in Log File Names Using the Sfxcl.exe Command-line Client
Note: This tip is for use with SecureFX® for Windows and Linux.
Would you like to have your log information include the date as part
of the log file name? If you are using Sfxcl.exe, the SecureFX for Windows and Linux command-line client, you can create a DOS batch file
to make the log information go to a file with the date as part
of the name.
Here's a sample DOS batch file:
FOR /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %a in ('DATE /T') do SET MyDate=%a%b%c
sfxcl.exe /log c:\MyLogs\SecureFX\%MyDate%.log ... [rest of command]
This will create a log file with the current date as the log name,
such as "05212003.log".

the SFXCL Command-Line Tool for SecureFX FAQs and the SFXCL Automation Tips reference information.
