:wc: isindex ---2 Reading Syslog Each UN*X/Linux system is full of information about its services, what they are doing how they perform and if there are any problems. You just have to take a look into the logfiles. This section on awk-scripting deals with logfile things. - One major source of information is your system's syslog file, usually this is __/var/log/messages__. ==tail -f /var/log/messages== is one of the famous UN*X/Linux commands. [[ csl ] __csl__ ] is an __awk__ script that helps watching the syslog by colouring the lines. Read [[ ColourSyslog ] how it works ] ... - Once the idea behnd colouring is clear the concept can be ported to other logfile formats like __apache__'s combined weblof format. But to make it more exciting the [[ chl ] __chl__ ] script gets a function to select loglines with an __awk__ expression. See [[ ColouringWeblogs ] how to colour HTTP logfiles ] ^^ . . ---3 __qmail-send__ Logfile Conversion Did you ever run a __qmail__ mail server? An did you experience the fun to read through the log files for a "Where is that mail?" request? If yes, then [[ +_blank qmail-relog ] __qmail-relog__ ] might be something for you, [[ QmailRelogDescription ] read about it ]. ---* Other files
