RE: [cobalt-users] LOG FILES

Have you tried Psionic Logcheck, it emails you on a regular basis with
security alerts and status info. I recommend it as I've found several cases
of people trying to use the proftpd vulnerability to hack my box. Thankfully
I updated proftpd to close that hole. Also look at Portsentry again from
Psionic, any hack attacks are killed by Route and hosts.deny entries.

does anyone know how i can pass my /var/log/messages (doesthislog all
connection attempts??) through to a html page?

i need to know if iv had un-authorised connections, i guess this is an easy
way?

either that or send an email to me when someone attempts a telent   or ftp
connection (i should be the only person who telnets and ftp's - my sites are
just used for mail and www)

thnx in advance.

basically im looking for a very simple solution to checking my log files.
