Logrotate.conf problem

[miklr]

Heath, per our discussion.

I have the following set in my logrotate.conf file (please take note of the /var/log/messages part as remember this is where we were getting the overload, but for some reason it didn't rotate)...

# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly

# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4

# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create

# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress

# RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d

# no packages own wtmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
monthly
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}

/var/log/messages {
rotate 1
size=100k
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
}

# system-specific logs may be also be configured here.


... ALSO Here is what I have in the syslog file...

/var/log/secure /var/log/maillog /var/log/spooler /var/log/boot.log /var/log/cron {
sharedscripts
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
}

#### ANY suggestions are appreciated.
