Anyone heard of a bug or mis-configuration that causes most log files to be
written to <logname>.1 instead of <logname>?

For instance, our /var/log/messages never has anything in it.  Today it looks
like:
> -rw-------  1 root  root           0 Jan  8 04:04 messages
> -rw-------  1 root  root     3060527 Jan  8 18:35 messages.1
> -rw-------  1 root  root      593454 Jan  1 22:50 messages.2
The most recent messages are always in /var/log/messages.1

The system is CentOS 4.

TIA,
C
