By setting up the relevant line in your ``/etc/newsyslog.conf'' file:

The format of this file is described in the manpage:

	% man newsyslog.conf

If you do read the manpage and you still have questions, then it's
either a bug of the manpage or something we can clarify on the list,
so don't hesitate to ask again :-)
