Hi,

Over the past couple of days logrotate has started to compress my logs once 
they've been rotated.

I haven't changed my logrotate config in any way recently, and I've checked 
the /etc/logrotate.conf file and the "compress" word is commented out.

I checked my syslog dropfile:

# cat /etc/logrotate.d/syslog
/var/log/messages /var/log/secure /var/log/maillog /var/log/spooler /var/log/
boot.log /var/log/cron {
    sharedscripts
    postrotate
        /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null 
|| true
    endscript
}

and there's also no place it says to compress.

I'm using SL4.4 and it's happened on a few SL4.4 machines at the same time. 
I'm at a loss to work this one out.

Any ideas from anyone what I'm missing?

Michael.
