Uh-huh.  That /should/ give you 10 log files of about 10MB each.

... which isn't happening.  That leads me to believe that the above arguments
aren't yet in effect.  Did you restart the logging subservices after you
changed the service/log/run script?  Your changes to the log/run script don't
take effect until the logging subservice is restarted.

What does `ps wwwaux | grep multilog` show?
