Hello, I've got a Centos 5.4 box that is not rotating it's mail logs. I just found out about this, the file is considerably large. I've included my log rotation configs if anyone has any suggestions i'm open to them. Thanks. Dave.

/etc/rsyslog.conf: # Log all kernel messages to the console. # Logging much else clutters up the screen. #kern.* /dev/console

# Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher. # Don't log private authentication messages! # don't log clamd messages *.info;ftp.none;clamd.none;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages

# The authpriv file has restricted access. authpriv.* /var/log/secure

# Log all the mail messages in one place. mail.* /var/log/maillog

# Log cron stuff cron.* /var/log/cron

# Everybody gets emergency messages *.emerg *

# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file. #uucp,news.crit /var/log/spooler

# Save boot messages also to boot.log local7.* /var/log/boot.log

# log ftp stuff separately ftp.* /var/log/ftp.log

/etc/logrotate.d/syslog: /var/log/messages /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 /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/rsyslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true endscript }

logrotate.conf: # 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 minsize 1M create 0664 root utmp rotate 1 }

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