I discovered that /var/log/messages is 428.6 MB on my IBM R40 laptop running Sarge. I see /var/log/messages.1.gz, to messages.6.gz. None of those are more than 302 KB and they're a year old. Syslog is in a similar situation. Other log files aren't so big, but they haven't been rotated in a year either. Why did rotation stop? How do I start it again? Logrotate was installed. I just got rid of it. Could it have been interfering?
