In theory, they should always end in 0000 and rotate daily unless you set a shorter 
rotation time with -Mr (I think) command line switch.

As a matter of fact, there is an obscure bug which surfaces on many systems and causes 
incorrect log file names to be generated from time to time.

On my system (NT4 SP6a, I only experimented with 1.17), log file name rotation behaves 
like this:

0000 all year until the very time when DST starts or ends; then, if DST starts they 
end in 0100 for the rest of the day, if DST ends they end in 2300 - and the date rolls 
back one day - for the rest of the day. From the day after everything is normal again.

Ciao, Francesco
