Hi,
I wrote this little script that greps the Exim log for incomplete
transaction, removes duplicate domains, displays the last 250 with line
numbers and updates every 15 seconds.
#!/bin/bash
while true
do
grep "incomplete transaction" /var/spool/exim/log/mainlog |
egrep -o "<.*>" | sed "s/[<>]//g" | nl > incomplete_transaction
sort -u -t @ -k 2 incomplete_transaction > file
sort -n -k 1 file > incomplete_transaction
tail -n 250 incomplete_transaction
sleep 15
done
Hope that might help somebody. If you see an improvement please comment.
Craig
