Actually, it appears to be set to 10% of the amount of disk space allotted to a given
domain...

500 meg limit site > 50 meg limit log...
50 meg limit site > 5 meg limit log...

And that is actually the size the log is rotated at... That is once it passes that
point...
For example, I have a site that has a disk limit of 50 meg... Right now that sites
log file is about 6 meg... When logrotate runs tonight, it will see that the log is
over it's limit and it will rotate it... If the log were only 3 meg, it wouldn't get
rotated until it passed 5 meg...

I have been thinking of killing the size limit thing and specifying the rotate point
to be monthly... I don't know if the GUI would over write that or not... Does anyone
know if it will?
