Hi Nicolas,

I think you will be happy to know that we added support for "globbed"
file names on our newest version (1.0). So, for example, if you have a
directory structure like this:

/var/log/host1/xx.log, yy.log, zz.log
/var/log/host2/xx.log, aa.log
/var/log/hostn/bb.log

Just add one entry in the localfile and it will monitor all your logs:

<localfile>
 <log_format>syslog</log_format>
 <location>/var/log/host*/*.log</location>
</localfile>

*You can download the 1.0 beta from http://www.ossec.net/files/snapshots/
or wait a few more days for the official release.

Hope it helps..

Hello Guys!!!

Heres the thing:

i have a centralized log server, and im loggin each box to a separated
directory.

I want ossec to parse the different log files in each directory.

Theres a "generic" way to specify something like a recursive inclusion
in the ossec config file?.

Since i have multiple messages, mail, secure etc etc files (in different
dirs) i dont really know how to config ossec to support this.


Thanks!!

Cheers!
