You found the problem: the indicated line needs to be changed. There's a subtle issue lurking here: the need to keep logrotate.d/syslog and /etc/ permissions.xxx consistent. Also another lesson to be learned: to find such things, do a recursive grep on /etc, like so:
grep -r /var/log/messages /etc
That brings the gremlins into the light of day.
Perhaps, but if you had read completely /etc/permissions.local, you would have had your answer. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org
