The easiest thing would likely be to make a quick logrotate definition
for the log file. The logrotating tool will depend on your
distribution, but they're all quite simple. Your existing system logs
are (likely) already being taken care of this way, just find their
configs and use as a reference.

Hi Guys,
I've just started using Nagios today, looks very impressive after I
finally got it working!
Was having a few problems getting it to access the database, but its
finally there! Unfortuately all the errors made my logfile
(/var/nagios/archives/*) over 20gb!
Is there a way of limiting the logfile size to stop this, (couldn't find
anything in the config, the forums or the mailing list!) or should I
resort to SysLog and read up on how to limit that?
Thanks everyone!
