Ok, sorry about that... It's just that some people tend to filter mailing list messages in a separate folder, and when you're CC'd it's easier to see if a message is especially intended for you... I like it at least... But I'll remember not to do that anymore :-) > > And I'm in no way a crack, but maybe a 'logger "LOGROTATE: I was here !"

When I insert a line "size=100k" in the /etc/logrotate.d/syslog file, and then run the logrotate command, the files do get rotated... So probably the problem is with the "weekly" thing... Does anyone know how exactly logrotate determines if a week has passed? Thanks, Hans
