syslogd again

Argh! I thought I solved the /var/log/* issue once and forever, but no, it did not work at all with the changes of the last post. I still see almost all logfiles being rotated. Nasty. Only /var/log/syslog seems to work OK.

Now I see that there is another file in


/etc/cron.weekly/syslogd


This needs to be removed without replacement. I want monthly logging, this is more than enough.

And apparently I need to add the -a option to syslogd-listfiles to get all files rotated in a useful way.
