Rotating Logs with Apache2

Hi All,

I have been investigating a problem with my server, apache 2 seems to stop every night for a few seconds and I have just found out why. The logrotate script is sending the:

/usr/bin/killall -HUP httpd

command and this is whats stopping and starting it again. Now I am wondering if I can change it to:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd graceful

Will that break logrotate?

Also with apache2 is the traditional logrotate still the best method?
