Linux is biting me.

What could have caused all my linux log files to vanish? I was just checking an unrelated issue on our web server and the files that used to be in the /var/log directory (except for rpm logs) are not there. None of them. No maillog, cron, system...any of them. I am not exactly sure when this occurred but I also noticed I stopped receiving Logwatch messages when searching my inbox for the nightly emails.

Any ideas?
