I keep thinking I'm doing something wrong... I have syslog-ng running on a
SUN Ultra 10, and it's been running for 192 days, and I have 700 minutes
time and 4.5M size... Of course, I only log from 6 other boxes to it for
now. :) 

Consider this a success story :) I have used syslog-ng to split up incoming
logs per facility and priority, so that if I see a message in the crit file,
I can go to the corresponding facility file and see if there were any more
message. This functionality has come in very handy a few times. :)
