Log File Parser for DSL Disconnects

2009-08-18 Thread Thom Paine 
Does anyone have a log file parser that tracks DSL connects and disconnects?

I've been having troubles with my connection and while I can scroll
through and see some connect requests, I was wondering if there is a
parser that will tell me that fairly easily.

I haven't been able to find anything with google, I did get a hit on
Nessus, but that doesn't seem to be what I am looking for.

Thanks.

have you considered using grep and redirecting to a file?

'grep connect filename  dsl-connect'

you can tighten down search with something like;

'grep connect filename | grep eth0  dsl-connect'

run 'man grep' for usage of grep.

Nessus is a vulnerability scanner and definitely not what you're looking
for.  I'd suggest using logwatch 'cause you probably have it installed
already - read their docs to figure out how to filter your log file for
the text you're looking for.
