Logcheck devel - Aug 2007 - Bug#437882: logcheck-database: violations.ignore rule for postfix's ETRN warnings

Package: logcheck-database
Version: 1.2.54
Severity: wishlist

Every once in a while, someone will connect to my Postfix server and
issue an ETRN for a foreign domain.  By default, Postfix only allows
ETRNs for $relay_domains, and will thus reject the request, issuing a
warnings that gets picked up as a security violation.

Here's a rule that filters these out:

  ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ postfix/smtpd\[[0-9]+\]: warning: reject:
ETRN [._[:alnum:]-]+\.\.\. from [._[:alnum:]-]+\[[0-9.]{7,15}\]$


(Yes, the "..." would get picked up by the char class before it, but I
prefered spelling it out.)
