logrotate for 11.23

Hello experts,

My application generates log files and that will be of huge size. I wanted to keep these logs. My Requirement is like this.

1) Generating daywise logfiles (everyday 1 file in normal scenario).
2) Generating multiple files in a day based on the file size (ex: if >500MB generate new file)with sequence mechanism
3) Purge old files based on the ageing mechanism (Ex: When the logfile age is more than 30 days, file has to be purged).

While searching i found this logrotate utility. I am planning to implement this. However, before going ahead with this
I am looking for the following details:
1) Where can i get/download this utility for HP-UX 11.23 ia64.
2) documentation
3) implementation mechanism

I tried to get these details with the URL's given in the earlier threads. However, i am getting pageload error :(

Can anybody help with the above details

Thanks in Advance,
-Srini
