[syslog-ng] Logrotate Not Rotating All - Need Help Matching Rules

[wiskbroom at hotmail.com]

My logrotate.d/syslog-ng file contains a few entries for many different logs, see below.

My syslog-ng.conf automatically creates entries for many different hosts, each with unique hostnames, depending on their purpose.  
The "purpose" for the hosts each have a different subdir under /var/log/Myhosts/, i.e. /var/log/Myhosts/Switches and /var/log/Myhosts/Firewalls.

Logrotate does not work unless I've added each host separately under my logrotate conf, which is impossible since I dynamically create these entries via mysyslog-ng.conf  .

Any help greatly appreciated.
