Hmm..., these involves "filesystem", "setup", "initscripts" and "msec". But since I now will drop msec, I don't have to modify these at all. I think "logcheck" and perhaps "tripwire" will pay more respect to the setup than msec does... :) Don't get me wrong..., "msec" is really good at what it is supposed to do, but it's a living hell if you want something else like "multilog -t /var/log/qmail", "multilog -t /var/log/smtp", etc. -- Regards // Oden Eriksson
