Hi Mike,
Actually it's all been set up, but /var/log/messages would be rotated on
weekly basis, if you want it daily, you can done so by changing:
/etc/logrotate.d/syslog:
{
sharedscripts
rotate 5
weekly <<<<<<<<<----- CHANGE THIS INTO DAILY
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP syslogd #
endscript
}
Make sure that you set your crontab to execute the command (crond.daily,
logrotate). It's all there should be.
