Greetings, Having responded to Matthew's request for a few people to set up a test network of NGR servers, I'm now wondering how the one I've started can be more useful. I've been using it to retrieve various random things, and when I have a few moments from time to time I'll insert something into the network.
Running the server and exercising it a little is all fine,and dandy, but what about the information from error messages and the log output that's currently being dumped unwatched into a file on the host here? I'm split heavily on a bunch of other work, and I'll likely miss anything interesting that might be coughed up. So, an idea: Would it be completely stupid to capture the log output periodically, grep it for stuff suggested as interesting material by the developers, then gzip and mail the result to some address where Matthew or whoever is responsible for all this can have a look at it? Sure, there's quite a bit in the logs but by removing all the unexceptional stuff maybe something would remain that would be useful if only you could see it. This could all be done effortlessly by a script. In fact, such a script could fashioned so that the items to search for could be retrieved along w/ the daily snapshot jar retrieval. Whatever helps get things working better- if you want the entire log for every day I'll be happy to send it. It just seems like a shame to be stabbing around in the dark (so to speak, I'm sure you're not actually) when there's all this info available if only you could see it. Given the nature of the NGR test network, it's hard to think that such a scheme would be a dreadful security compromise or somehow expose the network to danger. I mention all of this in part because a few hours ago while I was busy with a conference call I noticed the console on the NGR box here spit out a dire warning having to with a serious JVM error or somesuch. Unfortunately I couldn't do a thing about it at the time and now I can't find it in the log, though it's presumably in there someplace. Over and out. _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
