I've set up veriexec to monitor a data directory (>20GB) containing documents, pictures, music, and other personal files. I've tested veriexec at Strict level 1 and it is working as expected. The reason I'm doing this is to see whether or not veriexec can be used to monitor a data directory for silent bitrot or file corruption.
Without checking /var/log/messages manually, how would I go about triggering an instant notification if a file or files monitored by veriexec had changed? A cron job doesn't seem the right way to do this. Is there some other blindingly obvious way of doing this which has sailed right over my head? ;) -- Gerard Lally
