You can find many examples in the %{l_prefix}/etc/rc.d/rc.* run
control files in the %daily sections. I think that most of these
base their rotation on file size.
To insure daily rotation of files we generally set the size
parameters in the %{l_prefix}/etc/rc.conf file to values that are
sure to be exceeded.

Bill - every example I could find deals with size, not age. Is rotation
by age possible? Our security requirements state we need to keep certain
logs for 60 days and the size of certain logs get much bigger than
others (postfix compared to sudo, for example).
Here's where I'm confused: rc.sudo has the setting sudo_log_minsize="1M"
- is there a corresponding maxsize parameter? If size rotation is
available does the variable need to be defined in rc.conf and the
rc.program files?
