RE: Logwatch vs logsentry vs swatch vs ?

Personally, I run a RH 7.3 box running apache, sendmail, and bind and a couple of other services, and use logwatch to monitor them all. I works pretty well, never had any problems with it.

Fred,

I've managed to find a couple of versions of PortSentry and LogSentry (URLs are good as of 2003-03-07):

Hope this helps.

I am looking to implement a log monitoring system on a Red Hat 7.3 box configured as a dedicated qmail server. Any suggestions? logcheck is now logsentry apparently and with the Cisco buyout, doesn't seem to be readily available and probably not supported in the near future. Whatever I use needs to be easily configurable with qmail log monitoring as well as standard system log monitoring.
