I was just wondering if there was a recommended script to use for parsing your nightly logs and mailing yourself a report. I see root gets these little reports about cracklib and setuid changes and so forth. Is there a more extensive script or set of scripts one can use that anyone can recommend? I've read through /etc/cron.{daily,weekly,monthly} and see what's in there. I'm just looking for something a little more extensive.
Also, /etc/cron.daily/standard has some "find -name 'blah' -xargs blah" stuff that is commented out because of a security problem with find. Did this ever get worked out? Is there a newer version of find that doesn't contain this problem the standard script talks about? -- David S.
