Logfile Size

Hi Guys,

I've just started using Nagios today, looks very impressive after I 
finally got it working!

Was having a few problems getting it to access the database, but its 
finally there! Unfortuately all the errors made my logfile 
(/var/nagios/archives/*) over 20gb!

Is there a way of limiting the logfile size to stop this, (couldn't find 
anything in the config, the forums or the mailing list!) or should I 
resort to SysLog and read up on how to limit that?

Thanks everyone!
