The configuration for the rsyslog could be modified to add a size parameter
to rotate the file if a specific size is reached. Modifying the rsyslog
configuration under /etc/logrotate.d/ would do the job. Here is what I tried
/var/log/mail.info
/var/log/mail.warn
/var/log/mail.err
/var/log/mail.log
/var/log/daemon.log
/var/log/kern.log
/var/log/auth.log
/var/log/user.log
/var/log/lpr.log
/var/log/cron.log
/var/log/debug
/var/log/messages
{
rotate 10
size 1k
missingok
notifempty
compress
delaycompress
sharedscripts
postrotate
invoke-rc.d rsyslog force-reload > /dev/null
endscript
}
