I am using app-admin/metalog (http://metalog.sourceforge.net/) as logger. |

It does not create single log files, but directories, containing multiple |
| 12 |
files, and does the rotation itself. The current file's name is 'current', |
| 13 |
the others have a time stamp in it. You can limit the maximum length or |
| 14 |
time, and the total number of files. I have it set up so that I get one |
| 15 |
file per day, and keep the last 30 files, so I have the complete log of |
| 16 |
one month. |
