Absurdly large syslog sometimes fills Apache / partitions

Description

Busy web server can acculate a couple gigs in a day of logging sometimes... but the syslog? WTF? It shouldn't do doing that. With only ~7.5G on the / partition, filling this up ain't good. :)

We should check why these are so full and tidy things up a bit.

Possibly faster rotation than daily would be wise. Probably reducing the log verbosity of Apache would also be wise.

Due to the current config (No access log, logging to a loghost) which gets enforced by puppet, this issue has been solved.
