[CentOS] getting ftp log reports
Hello, I'm running pure-ftpd on a centos 5.3 machine. I'm encountering a situation where i need to get log reports of user logins and logouts and tracking the files got, atempted anonymous user logins those should preferably go in to a firewall rule block list, and atempted hack ins, same thing as anonymous user logins. Can anyone suggest a package for creating and then emailing say 3 to 4 times a day reports of activity? Thanks.

Re: [CentOS] getting ftp log reports
Hi, Thanks. I've installed logwatch. It definitely looks like what i'm looking for. I've got a question on customizations, point of confusion actually. In /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf are the default configs, nothing is in /usr/share/logwatch/dist.conf, and nothing in /etc/logwatch in terms of configs. Do i make changes to /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/* files or copy them to their equivalent name place in /etc/logwatch and edit making changes to those? Thanks much.

They run logwatch here, and I just look at the emails. Every hour. Every day. Every machine Anyway, looking through our configs, I see that what's in /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf just says # Local configuration options go here (defaults are in /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf). So I gather that if the defaults are fine, go with that; if you want something different, use the defaults as a guide, and put the local stuff in etc. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
