Description of problem: The log file: /var/log/lastlog doesn't get rotated. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [root@mosquito courier]# rpm -q logrotate logrotate-3.7.1-2 Additional info: Mandrake, for example has another entry in /etc/logrotate.conf: /var/log/lastlog { monthly rotate 1 } in the remark they say that because no package owns it (and wtmp, like already done in fedora) it will show in the main conf file.
Bug #: 372 Additional Comment #1 From Cristian Gafton (gafton) on 1998-12-10 18:58 ------- Private Comment lastlog should not be rotated, as it will not grow in size (it stores the timestamps of the last login for each UID, and the max number of UIDs is 65535, so ,ax size it will be 64K users * 6 bytes each record.
