1 Hi,
2
3 I detected that since mid-May my main log files
4 /var/log/{messages,auth.log,daemon.log,...}
5 don't get rotated any more.
6
7 I tried to solve this by making an entry in
8 /etc/logrotate.conf, but that doesn't work.
9 "maxsize" works, but not "weekly" nor "daily".
10
11 What happened in May and what do I have to try?
12
13 Thanks in advance.
