Has anyone else had any trouble with the logrotate script working? My files are getting quite large and I don't have one compressed archive of older files. I did collapse my syslog server to write to only /var/log/messages and /var/log/mail. The script runs, but never rotates the files. Any ideas why? Here is some of my files:
I see you have found /etc/logrotate.d/ . Now do a 'man logrotate' and modify the options in the files in that directory as to me your maxage, rotate and size values are too high.
*ns1:/var/named/pz # cat /etc/logrotate.d/syslog *
