Currently we tar and gzip our logs daily and back them off to another machine 
nightly and then run a process on another machine to look for nasty stuff,  
along with swatch running to notify us in real time for really nasty stuff.

The question I have is what people are doing with their firewall logs long 
term, putting them to tape, cd, compressing or archiving them on other 
machine.  How long do you keep them un-archived, how long do you keep them 
(forever, a year...), things like that.

You can respond privately or to the list if you think it is relevant.

Thanks in advance
