I think all the jobs in /etc/cron.daily look run at 4:02AM by default on my system here. Check /etc/crontab to find out for yours. You may wish to strip out /etc/cron.daily/logrotate and move it to the root directory where you can set up r00ts `crontab` [man crontab for more info] and have it run at say 3:00AM instead of firing with all the other jobs in that directory.
