Thanks. From your info it sounds like it would make more sense to just replace /etc/logrotate.d/syslog with a modified version *or* /etc/logrotate.d/syslog-ng if that would work.
I use cfengine to modify log rotation scripts and keep them modified correctly, /etc/logrotate.d/syslog on redhat, /usr/lib/newsyslog on solaris <= 8 (forget offhand the config for the cool new rotation tool on sol9, but I do that one too), and on debian I just 'apt-get install syslog-ng' once at install time ;) Make sure that whatever you use to modify your log rotation scripts *keeps* them updated over time despite updates/upgrades/patches. -- Nate Campi http://www.campin.net
