in reply to Wrong ownership of the file

This is just a guess, so '42' may be just as valid of an answer (see How do I post a question effectively?), but are you using a chown call instead of a chmod call?

    Thanks for reply and sorry for not clear question.

    You have right, chown made one error, because I received this communicate: 

    error: chown failed: (sniffer.log.1) at test.pl line 150

    Right now I set up the object of Logfile::Rotate like this: 
    my $log = new Logfile::Rotate( File   => 'sniffer.log',               
+                                               Pre => sub{close($LOG_
+FILE);},                                                             
+Post => sub{open( $LOG_FILE, '>', 'sniffer.log');},                  
+                                           Flock => 'no',            
+                                             Persist => 'no');

    The problem with chown call was solved but unfortunately I have another error:

    error: could not truncate sniffer.log: Permission denied at test.pl line 151

    I think that this is related to this files wrong ownership:

    -rw-r--r-- 1 root    root        0 2012-01-04 20:51 sniffer.log
-rw-r--r-- 1     200     200     0 2012-01-04 20:51 sniffer.log.1

    I tried the same algorithm without packet capture and everything was ok: no errors, files were created with correct ownership
