Answer to 1): The file is owned by postgres

drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 2048 Dec 17 04:02 ./
drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 1024 Apr 17 2000 ../
-rw------- 1 root root 30744 Dec 20 12:10 cron
-rw------- 1 root root 60456 Dec 17 04:02 cron.1
-rw------- 1 root root 64365 Dec 10 04:02 cron.2
-rw------- 1 root root 62189 Dec 3 04:02 cron.3
-rw------- 1 root root 62529 Nov 26 04:02 cron.4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2226 Dec 13 20:39 dmesg
-rwx------ 1 postgres postgres 0 Dec 17 04:02 postgresql*
-rwx------ 1 postgres postgres 33 Dec 10 04:02 postgresql.1.gz*
-rwx------ 1 postgres postgres 33 Dec 3 04:02 postgresql.2.gz*

Now, why is the postgresql log exacutable, and why does the rotate gzip it,
while others are not?

Answer to 2) is that all I have is syslogd and klogd running. Logrotate is
running on the cron.
