I'd like to propose the files below as new /etc/monthly and 
/etc/periodic/monthly/200.accounting, pending development of a logrotate 
command.  I don't think I'll get logrotate done in time for 2.2.6, but I 
think that the current system of rotating wtmp in /etc/newsyslog.conf, 
and generating "monthly" reports of account activity leaves a lot to be 
desired.  This will allow PRs 1708, 1941 and 5448 to be closed.

Please review.

Thanks,

Danny
