# /etc/logrotate.conf
#
# logrotate is designed to ease administration of systems that generate large
# numbers of log files. It allows automatic rotation, compression, removal, and
# mailing of log files. Each log file may be handled daily, weekly, monthly, or
# when it grows too large.
#
# logrotate is normally run daily from root's crontab.
#
# For more details, see "man logrotate".
# rotate log files weekly:
weekly
# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs:
rotate 4
# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones:
create
# don't rotate empty log files
notifempty
# uncomment if you want to use the date as a suffix of the rotated file
#dateext
# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed:
#compress
# uncomment this to put rotated logs in "oldlogs" subdir
# this is relative to the original dir of the to-be-rotated file
# You can use a full path here, but beware of identically-named
# logfiles in different directories, e.g. httpd logs
#olddir oldlogs
# some packages install log rotation information in this directory:
include /etc/logrotate.d
# Rotate /var/log/wtmp:
/var/log/wtmp {
monthly
create 0664 root utmp
minsize 1M
rotate 1
}
# Rotate /var/log/btmp:
/var/log/btmp {
monthly
create 0600 root root
rotate 1
}
# Note that /var/log/lastlog is not rotated. This is intentional, and it should
# not be. The lastlog file is a database, and is also a sparse file that takes
# up much less space on the drive than it appears.
# system-specific logs may be also be configured below:
