It's working in rsyslog with applying the link you've given. Thanks. The only thing that I am thinking now is how to make logrotate to automatically compress those different directories/files in various hostnames logged in a certain period of time. I can copy and modify manually the /etc/logrotate.d/syslog to target those different hostname logged but is there any settings needed to work it in logrotate.conf?
Thanks.

Not that rules, but definetely it's possible with rsyslog.
