tidy Description

tidy is a software to tidy up log file(s) created by syslogd and do statistics on it. tidy is a software to tidy up log file(s) created by syslogd and do statistics on it.Tidy cleans up the log file(s) created by the syslogd daemon. For a system operator it is a bothersome job to sort out the interesting (sometimes alarming) entries from a pile of standard entries. Tidy distinguishes different services (telnet, finger, etc.) and removes standard entries.Furthermore tidy tries to extract a remote host from the messages. These remote hosts are added to a statistics database. The number of contacts of each service is saved together with the time/date stamp of the last contact. The statistics can be printed out as simple ASCII or HTML. Here are some key features of "tidy": · Configuration of the action of tidy moved entirely to a configuration file tidy.conf, thereby making customization a lot easier. · Tidy now keeps statistics data in a separate database file. Different output can hereby be produced from one database. · HTML output format added. Produces neat tables. ASCII output enhanced. · Added a lot of options to customize the output. · Added progress indicator. Can be turned off with the -q switch. · Added sorting by number of connections and by Internet domains. · Added host name aliasing. · Added utilities for installation and more verbose documentation. · Tidy is now distributed under the GNU Public License. Requirements: · Perl · syslogd
