Bug 8223 – Logwatch, a customizable log analysis system

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alessandro Pisani 2002-09-22 14:02:11 UTC]

Logwatch is a customizable log analysis system which will check all relevant
system logs once a day and will report issues and security related problems to
the sysadministrator via email.
for more info: http://www.logwatch.org

I attached logwatch-3.3.ebuild and digest-logwatch-3.3
I suggest logwatch to be added to sys-apps/logwatch
ebuild depends on: glibc, virtual/mta, virtual/cron, perl, net-mail/mailx

hope you'll find it useful.
i'm available for any futher detail/question

bye,
Alessandro

SpanKY: no, I can't: i'm not authorized to do so... at least, bugzilla say this
when I try to mask an attachment as obsolete.

fix SLOT

obsoletes #4096
this fixes SLOT, to avoid clashes in crontab

[Comment 9 Alessandro Pisani 2002-09-23 16:25:19 UTC]

Can you please DELETE the "FIX SLOT" update? (#4096)
it is completely wrong: slot have to be 0 (i misunderstood both an error msg and
a documentation readme, uhm...maybe i need some sleep! ^_^)

Is there any chance to get this in CVS soon, at least masked?
