David,

   Here, too. I don't see an explicit reference to syslog in
/etc/logrotate.conf (which calls for weekly rotation), /etc/cron.weekly, or
/etc/cron.daily. /etc/cron.daily/logrotate invokes '/usr/sbin/logrotate
/etc/logrotate.conf' which calls /etc/cron.weekly ...

   Looks to me like it's self-referential or circular reasoning. That's why
I'm trying to understand just what is being rotated when and I've not seen
when /etc/logrotate.d/syslog is turned over.

Thanks,

Rich
