In a vanilla install of DA on CentOS 5.9 64-bit, how often do the logs rotate?

Thanks,

On one of my few remaining CentOS 5.x servers:

# cd /var/cache/logwatch
# ls -al
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 30 04:02 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 May 11  2011 ..
#

And on CentOS6 the directory doesn't exist at all. These are not logfiles. In general log files managed by logrotate are found in /var/log, and are rotated weekly unless you've made changes to your configuration.

But I'm probably missing something so I hope someone else will respond.
