I have a question and at the same time i almost know that it must exist a way of doing this.
The situation is: I want that my logs act as FIFOs. I mean.. I want my log files to have a max of 100 KB or 100 lines (the one that is most convenient to find a solution).
Trust me - you *really* want to break it on the basis of discrete times that tend to have 100K per time period (be it once an hour, or once a day, or every 15 minutes, or something). When you're trying to shoot a problem, and one logfile destination runs from 02:17:34 to 03:09:19, the next from 03:09:19 to 05:48:28, and another destination runs from 01:45:07 to 02:36:12, the next from 02:36:12 to 06:29:58 - quick, which files do you need to get all messages from 45 seconds to either side of 03:10:15? Oh, and one of the machines concerned didn't have the DST patch installed, so you probably want to find 45 seconds either side of 02:10:15 as well. ;)
