I agree that I would like to find the best technical solution; I'm just not sure that a "syslog-logrotate" package is it. As pointed out in a different part of this thread, even sysklogd and rsyslog have different log rotation scripts due to restarting a different daemon. It was previously suggested that all three should use the same pid file and therefor be able to be restarted by the logrotate script regardless of which one was running. I don't like this method since it creates a problem if someone accidentally starts two syslog daemons at the same time. I don't mind contacting the Red Hat person in charge of sysklogd if we find a good solution; I just feel it would be unlikely to get a change to such a core package into RHEL. -Doug
