RHEL 3 and 4.
In the syslog.conf file how long are these log files kept and what
is the rotation schedule for instance /var/log/authlog. I don't
see any cron jobs for log rotation.
I need to keep at least 30 days worth of logs.
Thanks much.

Hi.
The log rotation policies is managed with the "logrotate" utilitie.
See:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate
/etc/logrotate.conf
/etc/logrotate.d/*
man logrotate for further information
Regards.
Yeas, you can set for each log or all logs things like how often a new
log is created (daily, weekly, monthly, after a certain size is reached
or number of entries, etc), How many sets of logs are created before
they rotate out (just one log, 5, 10, 100, ...) and how many of each to
keep and when to kill them off.
I tend to use webmin on my home computer with no outside access to it.
It has a built in module for managing the logrotate features.
