File logrotate.syslog of Package syslogd

#
# Please note, that changing of log file permissions in this
# file is not sufficient if syslog-ng is used as log daemon.
#
# It is required to specify the permissions in the syslog-ng
# configuration file /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf as well.
#

# the firewall,acpid,NetworkManager log files
# are used by syslog-ng and rsyslog only, the
# other by all syslog daemons.
