+# /etc/logrotate.conf
+#
+# logrotate is designed to ease administration of systems that generate large
+# numbers of log files. It allows automatic rotation, compression, removal, and
+# mailing of log files. Each log file may be handled daily, weekly, monthly, or
+# when it grows too large.
+#
+# logrotate is normally run daily from root's crontab.
+#
+# For more details, see "man logrotate".
+
+# rotate log files weekly:
+weekly
+
+# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs:
+rotate 4
+
+# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones:
+create
+
+# uncomment if you want to use the date as a suffix of the rotated file
+#dateext
+
+# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed:
+#compress
+
+# some packages install log rotation information in this directory:
+include /etc/logrotate.d
+
+# Rotate /var/log/wtmp:
+/var/log/wtmp {
+ monthly
+ create 0664 root utmp
+ minsize 1M
+ rotate 1
+}
+
+# Rotate /var/log/btmp:
+/var/log/btmp {
+ monthly
+ create 0600 root root
+ rotate 1
+}
+
+# Note that /var/log/lastlog is not rotated. This is intentional, and it should
+# not be. The lastlog file is a database, and is also a sparse file that takes
+# up much less space on the drive than it appears.
+
+# system-specific logs may be also be configured below:
