Hello, i am trying set up my cpanel/whm server so i can manange my logs.

I know that with standard install website logs are rotated at end of month, but i also have some domians setup with logs in home/logs as per:
http://i4net.tv/marticle/get.php?action=getarticle&articleid=22

What i would like to do is tar up these home/logs/ logs at the end of each month and clear logs ready for new month.

Also how do other manange system logs?

/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log
/usr/local/apache/logs/access_log
/var/log/
/var/spool/exim/input/
/var/spool/exim/msglog/

are these rotated? is it possible to get important logs tarred and mailed on regular basis?

cheers

You could add these to your logrotate config. See:

/etc/logrotate.conf
/etc/logrotate.d

Thanks for reply.
would these work even if you have logs in different places?
