logwatch

Summarizes many different logs for common services (e.g., apache, pam_unix, sshd, etc.) in a single report.

  • Analyze logs for a range of dates at certain level of detail:

logwatch --range {{yesterday|today|all|help}} --detail {{low|medium|others}}'

  • Restrict report to only include information for a selected service:

logwatch --range {{all}} --service {{apache|pam_unix|etc}}
