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.
