[syslog-ng] Logrotate - recursive directories

[Ken Garland]

after scouring the net i don't see a light at the end of this tunnel so
i went an alternate route and just edited the syslog-ng.conf from
$HOST/$FACILITY to $HOST.$FACILITY and will be using /var/log/syslogs/*
in logrotate.d/syslog-ng

its working fine now. ;)
