Using different logrotation methods is IMHO not very reasonable. I am
not using shorewall for my big production systems and just added the
logfile in question to the lrp.conf file to profit from the existence of
a logrotation mechanism. If we offer more than one logging mechanism,
then, I believe, we must also offer the tools to handle the respective
log files.

The modification to the logrotate function is minor and, if applied
correctly, will not disturb current functionality. Another possibility
might be to add multicron-p to etc.local so local modifications are
backed up to configdb.

cheers
