[cobalt-security] Increasing access log file sizes

["Malcolm Wild" <cobaltsec@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Anyone know of any implications if we increasing the access log size for
individual domain in the /etc/logrotate.d/ folder?

I know that it uses the VAR partition so a global increase would cause the
RaQ to run out of allocated space and when writing files it would simply
crash the server, but i can't see a major issue increasing indiviaual
virtual hosts log size as required.

[root /etc/logrotate.d]# more siteX
/home/sites/siteX/logs/access {
   compress
   size 1M
}
[root /etc/logrotate.d]#

Question
Can I extend the log reports on the server? One of the logs report about 2
days worth of informaton before being deleted.


Response
No, the log files cannot be extended as it is based on the file size, and
the amount of space partitioned on the hard drive
