About 99% of what's in messages or secure is trivia. JoeBob logged in, ran a sudo command and logged off. An authenticated mount request was received from ip.add.re.ss. That sort of thing. What I'm looking for is a parser that can pick out the (hopefully) rare messages that indicates a problem like a disk drive is reporting errors. I can modify big brother and logwatch to do this but I am curious if anyone has a favorite package I haven't heard of yet. > Rainer > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:rsyslog- > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephen Carville > > Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2008 6:54 PM > > To: rsyslog-users > > Subject: [rsyslog] Log watch software > > > > I have a cenltralized repository usng rsyslogm and syslog to mirror > > /var/log/messages, /var/log/secure ,and information messages from > > cfengine.
