./sysutils/logrider, Monitor system logs for alerts

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.2, Package name: logrider-0.2, Maintainer: francksys

LogRider is my attempt to improve a popular LogCheck/LogSentry utility.
LogCheck uses egrep for periodically scanning system logs for specific
alert/hacking signatures based on set of static filters. LogRider is
rewritten from scratch with lot of important features added:
1. Strings caught by any filter are excluded from processing by next filters.
2. Actual filters are composed from the set of small sub-filters located
in directories that name is given as filter name. Each subfilter
contains messages generated by one service. You can easily put additional
filters for checking additional services without modification of
already existing program and configuration.
3. Configuration is separated from program and moved to standalone file.
This means that LogRider may be easily adopted to new platform without
modification of program core, and may be easily used for checking multiple
logfiles by different filters.

Log message:
Sort PLIST files.

Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:

  pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F

Log message:
Add SHA512 digests for distfiles for sysutils category

Problems found with existing digests:
	Package memconf distfile memconf-2.16/memconf.gz
	b6f4b736cac388dddc5070670351cf7262aba048 [recorded]
	95748686a5ad8144232f4d4abc9bf052721a196f [calculated]

Problems found locating distfiles:
	Package dc-tools: missing distfile dc-tools/abs0-dc-burn-netbsd-1.5-0-gae55ec9
	Package ipw-firmware: missing distfile ipw2100-fw-1.2.tgz
	Package iwi-firmware: missing distfile ipw2200-fw-2.3.tgz
	Package nvnet: missing distfile nvnet-netbsd-src-20050620.tgz
	Package syslog-ng: missing distfile syslog-ng-3.7.2.tar.gz

Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden).  All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
