logrotate is your friend.
From the man pages:
logrotate is designed to ease administration of systems that generate
large numbers of log files. It allows automatic rotation,
compression,
removal, and mailing of log files. Each log file may be handled
daily,
weekly, monthly, or when it grows too large.
Normally, logrotate is run as a daily cron job.
from what I remember you add your log file to the logrotate config and
it rotates/emails/compresses/whatever on the schedule you specify.

I'll research it, but I forgot a little detail:
Serial Logger service (for windows) rotates the files on a schedule
that I specify: Such as daily (what I use). At midnight it closes
out the day's file, and creates a new one. The filename of each file
is the date.
EASMON works similarly, but I think its rotation is fixed to a weekly
bases. IMHO that is too long-if you have a RWT on Tuesday, but power
fails on Thursday, you've lost the log. We have UPS systems, but I
still prefer daily rotations.
