Logcheck devel - Feb 2005 - Logcheck Talk / Logcheck.org / Pylogcheck

Hey guys,

I thought I'd let you know I'm doing a lightning talk on Logcheck for a
local security conference[0].  Marcus Ranum, the guy who originally wrote
frequentcheck.sh, on which logcheck was originally based is going to talk too!

Also I finally got around to croning a nightly cvs-pull for the logcheck.org
html, so feel free to make changes if you're bored <:  It's in the
same
CVSROOT under /logcheck-www.  I've listed the current team on the main page,
and you might want to link your name to your blog or homepage.

Thirdly, I've been experimenting with logcheck in Python.  I have a _very_
experimental but working version in my own CVS[1].  I do not know if you guys
like Python, but I am happy to import this into alioth and would welcome
contributions if there is interest.  As I said though, at the moment it is
very hackish.  My email address is hard coded, and I do not want your logs.

Cheers!
-Todd

sounds nice.

you might want to read the online chapter of
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxss2/
the last chapter has a pointer to logcheck with respect to its design
limitations.

python illeterate myself sorry,
but it would be nice to have some sort speed comparisation?

concerning logtail i still prefer to have it in c,
but no code here to show yet.

concerning current state could you kick 1.2.35 into sarge this
weekend?
would leave us enough time for testing and adding some rule bits.
the logtail.News item should probably be rewritten abit?
