     Hej Erich,
     well, on my way of trying to understand that all log stuff, I tried
     that
     und found that hostapd and shorewall are logging with ulogd

     I am not a big fan of multiple logging services so take this with a
     grain of salt. Basically the logging service used by the various
     daemons depend on the configuration of each of those services. Most
     things in Linux can log to rsyslog. To distinguish these logs is a
     feature of rsyslog and needs to be configured there.
     # grep DAEMON *
     hostapd:DAEMON=ulogd

     I believe this does not make sense.

     ......

     lighttpd:DAEMON=adm
     lighttpd:DAEMON=lighttpd

     This does not make sense at all as the second assignment overrides
     the first.

     ....
     ntp:DAEMON=rsyslog
     pppd:DAEMON=rsyslog

     .....
     shorewall:DAEMON=ulogd
     shorewall6:DAEMON=ulogd

     Shorewall logs to ulogd

     syslog:# DAEMON - restart this service after logrotation
     syslog:DAEMON=rsyslog
     ulogd:DAEMON=ulogd

     Ulogd logs to itself or handles its own logfiles, have to look this
     up.
     But what means the setting(s) in lighttpd?

     Lighttpd in some configurations writes its own logfiles. I believe
     it could also log to rsyslog.
     So you should look into the configuration of all these services, see
     where they are logging to. Then you can configure logrotate to
     handle the various generations of logfiles
     What is the big file cluttering your system? Check the settings for
     this service first.

     Cheers
