[syslog-ng] syslog-ng log rotation

[Mike]

you could have a log destination that looks something like this:

destination d_oddly_short_interval {
         file(
 		"/your_path/$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY-$HOUR-$MINUTE.txt"
         );
};

so syslog-ng would just keep creating new files every minute. it would be 
up to you to bundle up your 5 minute  sections.
