I just discovered that /var/log/messages is NOT part of the daily 
logrotate on my FC10 netbook.  My drive was full with a 4Gb messages 
file.  Deleted it and now the system is working right again.

So I want to add it to the daily rotate.  Is there an easy way to set 
this up?

More importantly why is it NOT part of the daily rotate?
