Hi Koray
This is what i have done to my servers .
u can edit the config file /etc/logrotate.d/syslog and remove the /var/log/secure /var/log/cron /var/log/messages and add the new file in /etc/logrotate.d/cust and edit the file and add the following
/var/log/messages /var/log/secure /var/log/cron {
daily
missingok
rotate 7
compress
create 600 root root
sharedscripts
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
}
save and exit and restart syslogd service u r done .

It's the standard configuration for those logs to be rotated in RHES4.
Are you sure they're not already being rotated? Did you look in
/etc/logrotate.d/ for the config files? Did you read the man page for
logrotate?
