Since upgrading to Wheezy, I've had the following entries showing up in my morning logwatch E-Mail:
> --------------------- Dovecot Begin ------------------------ > > Dovecot disconnects: > Inactivity: 27 Time(s) > Inactivity (tried to use disallowed plaintext auth): 2 Time(s) > Logged out in=1115 out=13676: 1 Time(s) > Logged out in=12173 out=351935: 1 Time(s) > Logged out in=1272 out=27883: 1 Time(s) > Logged out in=1303 out=25234: 1 Time(s) > Logged out in=1337 out=25064: 1 Time(s) > Logged out in=1419 out=30466: 1 Time(s) > Logged out in=1527 out=13360: 1 Time(s) > [...] Now, the way those entries are showing up in the syslog looks like this: > Aug 11 09:12:48 janet dovecot: imap({username}): Disconnected: Logged out > in=1714 out=32525 > Aug 11 09:56:55 janet dovecot: imap({username}): Disconnected: Logged out > in=2348 out=48815 > Aug 11 13:06:15 janet dovecot: imap({username}): Disconnected: Logged out > in=2566 out=44455 > [...] "{username}" is just me blanking out the username that appeared there. :-) Now, for the topper, here's what's in /etc/logwatch/conf/ignore.conf: > dovecot: .*Connection closed in= > dovecot: .*Logged out in= > dovecot: .*Disconnected for inactivity in= So, the $64,000 question is: Why are those entries showing up in the report?? What am I missing here? :-) (It's all the "logged out" messages I'm trying to ignore.) --Dave
