Re: [SLUG] do all logs in /var/log get rotated, or where is that ?

[Kevin Saenz]

You have a psudo deamon called logrotate.d  it's a cron job that runs on 
a daily basis and reads the
config files in both /etc/ and /etc/logrotate.d/ directories.

what motivates various log files in /var/log to be rotated ?
if I have a script that logs to /var/log/mylog.log, will that get rotated,
or, where do I enrol it , should I wish to have it rotated (and I probably
do not, it writes one entry per day)
