similar to: CentOS Digest, Vol 115, Issue 21

Hello everyone - I am stumped ... Does anyone have suggestions on how to proceed? Is there a way to get what I want? The environment: CentOS 7.0 with latest patches. The goal: I want logwatch to include a report on the status of kvm virtual computers. The problem: When run from anacron, SELinux denies permission for the virsh utility. Here is a portion of the logwatch output:

Hello, I have a strange (for me) problem with these two machines : - Client, a CentOS-5.7 workstation ; - Server, a CentOS-6.2 headless, up-to-date server. From Client, I want to use xauth on Server with the help of rsh (yes, I know, ssh and all this sort of things... another time.) When SELinux is in permissive mode on Server, all these commands perform as expected : rsh Server

Hello CentOS / RedHat / IBM folks! I am wondering if I can get a communication channel opened with someone who can affect changes win upstream RHEL? I don't have support accounts with RHEL, and use CentOS almost exclusively. I did have a direct email conversation with Mr. Daniel Walsh regarding these problems, but his answer was to create custom policy to allow what's being denied, as

Hello All, I set up ltsp regulary, on Centos6 machines. This morning I have a Selinux problem that usualy does not occur: after setting everything up, the thinclients boot, but nobody can login. It only works after the command : # echo 0 > /selinux/enforce I tried this semanage command: # semanage fcontext -a -t bin_t /usr/bin/xauth but it makes no difference. The message I'm now

Logwatch is installed, and I am assuming by how empty /etc/logwatch is that it is running from defaults, which I find in /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/services I want to customize ONE service. dovecot. Do I copy /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/services/dovecot.conf to /etc/logwatch/conf/services and edit it there, or do I have to copy ALL default.conf/services/* there and modify

Hi! I am trying libvirt on POWERPC64 with the default settings such as selinux enabled. It is all good till I move images out of /var/lib/libvirt/images/. http://libvirt.org/drvqemu.html#securityselinux is saying that "If attempting to use disk images in another location, the user/administrator must ensure the directory has be given this requisite label. Likewise physical block devices

Hi, # uname -a Linux obfuscated.example.com 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Aug 4 20:23:34 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I noticed a few days ago that I'm not getting my logwatch emails to the root account any longer, and while I've definitely been applying updates from base, no other changes have happened on this box. I ran logwatch at the command line: logwatch --detail medium

Hello, This is somehow off-topic, since the problem appears on a modified CentOS-6.2 (turned into a xen-4.1 host) : I get SELinux errors, and I'm not able to understand them.

I am trying to get a logwatch summary emailed to a central address from a cron job. The tasd was copied verbatim from a system which does this already. Both are shown below. host1 crontab -l as root 45 7 * * * /usr/sbin/logwatch --service http --service imapd --service pop3 --service sshd --service vsftpd --service zz-disk_space --service zz-network --service zz-sys --mailto support at

Hi All, I need to be able to make sense from my shorewall logs. I have installed logwatch and it is mailing me reports but the level of detail is just not there. I have set the detail variable to High=10 but I get entries only from the DNS service about denied updates. What am I getting wrong? Tom, will you be kind enough to send me your logwatch config files? Thanks in advance. Ama

Hello I am trying to get logwatch working on CentOS 8. System is fully updated. Usually install minimal version and then add only necessary with yum. On CentOS 7: install logwatch and get daily logwatch report on mail. On CentOS 8: install logwatch but no way to get mail. Am I doing something wrong? Or miss something? Thanks in advance Blaz

The Logwatch imapd service script distributed with CentOS-6 does not generate anything when I run logwatch --service all on a cyrus-imapd host. Is this expected behaviour? Is there a separate script for cyrus-imapd or are their configuration options required to get the existing script to work. I have found an ancient (2004) logwatch service script for cyrus-imapd but I was sort of hoping that

After some experimenting I have observed that overriding settings from /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf in /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf does not produce consistent results. For example, if I replace the default detail configuration in etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf with: Detail = High It does indeed change the level of detail from the default Low set in

Don't remember if I already wrote about this. But ran into it tonibhg again. Logwatch as distributed with CentOS expects yum log files in different format. As result, logwatch will not report anything. The patch is really simple (and attached). Hopefully it'll be part of 4.3 (if not sooner). The upstream is not likely to patch it, since they don't distribute yum at all.

CentOS-6.6 Can logwatch be configured to display the system uptime as part of the reporting prologue? If not then what would be the recommended way of including this information in a daily logwatch report? -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail James B.

Hi all, Well it took a while for me to figure it out, but apparently my logwatch no longer can be mailed locally on my computer as I believe spamassassin is eating it. I can send it out to an email address outside my server though. So spamassassin is only checking incoming I guess. My question is....how do I...or should I.... Make all local mail go straight to the boxes and skip spamasassin
