Try tossing logrotate in there for kicks.  It's an absolute joy, 
especially on systems that you don't intend to interact directly with 
too often.

YES,

I've been meaning to come up to speed on using logrotate and some scripts
I have found....


Thanks!

The minimal USE flag might be nice to have.

Apparently the official position on that one is that it should be used 
(pardon the pun ;)) only in /etc/portage/package.use.  I know that in my 
case, having it turned on globally caused Shorewall not to work 
(requires iproute2 with -minimal).  In any case, it's one flag that you 
should definitely familiarize yourself with on a per-package basis if 
you plan to use it.
