Hi John,

Its in the file /etc/logrotate.d/apache I don't know what the exact settings
should be for your case. You could change the /etc/logrotate.conf but that
would affect all the logs. See "man logrotate". Also you could take apache
out of logrotate.d and set up a rotation yourself by setting up a shell
script that rename the logs and reload apache to create the new log and set
that up as a cron job.

As far as webalizer is concerned you can do a incremental processing. I
personally rotate apache every 4 hours because my people want to see the new
stats that often. See the webalizer options here
ftp://ftp.mrunix.net/pub/webalizer/README/ Webalizer keeps a history file so
you can rotate the logs however often you want. Just make sure webalizer
runs before the next rotation.
