Sounds good except look what I found in /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: #!/bin/sh # TMPDIR value other than /tmp needs to be set because of the noexec # option on /tmp that is currently set. export TMPDIR=/var/tmp/logrotate /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf EXITVALUE=$? if [ $EXITVALUE != 0 ]; then /usr/bin/logger -t logrotate "ALERT exited abnormally with [$EXITVALUE]" fi exit 0 Any other ideas?
