I guess, this script needs to be running
around like a daemon to pack off log files
based on log-file-size/time-elapsed.. etc. 

And that's exactly what I've been saying.

Assuming you're using Apache, I have a simple shell script that I've
used to manage this for quite a while now. It scans the apache config
file, and (gracefully) rotates any logfiles it finds there, compressing
the rotated files and renaming them to a dated filename.

You can grab a copy here:
   http://logsoft.com/apache/rotate_apache.sh

Run it as './rotate_apache.sh -h' to get a usage message.

Be certain to edit it to set the email address to whom errors get sent
to, and the path to your compression utility.

Hope this helps.
