Does anyone have a link to some Logwatch installation instructions. There nothing on the logwatch website and not manage to find anything on here or on google.
I jusy want to set it up and have it email me every day.
I have never used rpm installs before.
Just got logwatch installed but config file appears to be blank?
wget ftp://ftp.kaybee.org/pub/redhat/RPMS...6-1.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh logwatch-7.3.6-1.noarch.rpm
rm -rf logwatch-7.3.6-1.noarch.rpm
pico -w /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf
This is what the config file shows:
# Local configuration options go here (defaults are in /usr/share/logwatch/defa$
I then look at that file and it's empty too.
Isnt there suppose to be config lines a file that I can alter to set my email address and stuff?
i cant seem to download logwatch anymore
is there any site keeping archive of logwatch available for download?
or is there any alternative to logwatch?
I have been trying to setup rsync on my server and following these instructions
http://www.bqbackup.com/setup.html
The problem is I keep getting errors.
On this step,
ssh-keygen -t rsa -N
I edited it and did ssh-keygen -t rsa --N becauseI got an error saying it need the '--' before the N.
So after getting through that part, I got these questions asked
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
I left the passphrase empty, and then when it asked where to save to, I just typed in 'rsa'. Then it gave me some fingerprint.
Then I get to the step,
# scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub yourusername@yourusername.bqbackup.com:keys/server1
# ssh yourusername@yourusername.bqbackup.com mergekeys
But I get errors saying
-bash: cat~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub: No such file or directory
I dont get what I'm doing wrong. If somebody doesnt mind, can you please re-write the steps on getting this working, or maybe tell me where I am going wrong if the tutorial is correct?
i am getting these in Logwatch 7.3.2

I am thinking of installing Logwatch on my cPanel/WHM VPS
Does it take a lot of resources to run?
Does it run once a day only or is it running all the time?
I recentlt receive this log from server:

Does that mean someone was trying break into the server or something?
I've been tasked with developing a default Logwatch configuration for a few dozen servers that will email their findings to a ticketing system. I was hoping to find insight here from users who are using Logwatch similarly. If you have Logwatch emailing a ticket system, I'd love to hear about your custom configs...

I am a bit confused about this. Is logwatch telling me a 400 request also served a 200?

I've been getting this log watch from my server emailed to me on a daily basis. It gives me a list of all the authentification failures via SSH and other protocols. Should I be actively concerned that there's specific IP addresses consistantly trying to access my SSH account? Likewise, for any type of failed login. Should I actively block their IP address from accessing the server at all?
I've also noticed in the Connections group, there's a lot of monitoringservice.net connections -- is this normal?
Just want to make sure I'm taking an active effort on preventing my server being brought down. I mean, I have 2000+ SSHd authentication failures... seems really high.
I was searching for something else the other day and came across this (search for LogWatch on the page).
It changes the default paths for some of the log files so that they work on a cPanel/WHM server.
This will give you more reports in your daily LogWatch email - specifically, it adds exim, apache, courier and PureFTP logs.
Most tutorials only show you how to change the detail level or the email address in logwatch.conf.
So, I thought I'd share this piece of information.
I found that a few changes were necessary for my system.
So, I'll give all the steps I followed below:
1) After you have installed LogWatch, change the following in /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf :
Code:
Detail = High
MailTo = <your email address>
You can use Detail = Med if you want to reduce the details you get.
2) Add the following to /etc/logwatch/conf/override.conf (you may have to create the file):
Code:
logfiles/exim: LogFile = exim_mainlog
logfiles/http: LogFile = /usr/local/apache/logs/access_log
services/pop3: *OnlyService = cpanelpop
services/pop3: *RemoveHeaders = 1
services/pureftpd: LogFile = messages
services/pureftpd: $show_logins = 1
services/pureftpd: $show_logouts = 1
services/pureftpd: $show_new_connections = 1
So, if you are not bored reading LogWatch's daily logs and would like to increase your workload, you now know how to
How have you configured your LogWatch installation ? Or do you use something other than LogWatch?
I logged into my email to check for my nightly logwatch report (at 12am).
Nothing.
So I log into ssh and manually run it, get greeted with this:
You have old files in your logwatch tmpdir (/var/cache/logwatch):
logwatch.zcTV3hC0
The directories listed above were most likely created by a
logwatch run that failed to complete successfully. If so, you
may delete these directories.
I last ran logwatch around 10:30pm, it worked fine.
I try to run logwatch again, same error.. except now there's another temp file showing beneath the first.
I go ahead and delete both of them, run logwatch again...it worked. I also got the other reports from when I tried running logwatch manually and was stopped with this error.
I've never had this happen before, so I'm curious as to what caused it? Logwatch is in cron.daily and has never missed a single report.
Just typical data corruption (as can happen with any computer file) or could something have interfered with its processing at 12?
My /var partition is getting full and most of the problem seems to be with the files in /var/cache/logwatch/ using up all the space. Can those be deleted?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running out of disk space on /var and it seem /var/cache/logwatch has almost 4GB of space. Can I remove everything inside and uninstall logwatch? How do I remove logwatch from the system and any affect of the system functionality.

I have been receivig a huge logwatch report, seems that logwatch is not parsing the /var/log/secure file, but sending the log entries instead of any resume of it. I got thousands of lines like
Cp-Wrap: Pushing "47 GETDISKUSED pvargas lights.com.co" to '/usr/local/cpanel/bin/eximadmin' for UID: 47 : 25 Time(s)
Cp-Wrap: Pushing "47 GETDISKUSED r.perez konecrans.com" to '/usr/local/cpanel/bin/eximadmin' for UID: 47 : 69 Time(s)
Cp-Wrap: Pushing "47 GETDISKUSED r.rodriguez konecrans.com" to '/usr/local/cpanel/bin/eximadmin' for UID: 47 : 114 Time(s)
I have upgraded to the most recent version of Logwatch with default configuration. Any ideas on what could be wrong?
Is this someone trying to gain access to the server and just trying different password or ways? The server is new with no websites hosted yet but already getting this.
Will Brute Force not take care of this?
Is this common? Any ideas?

Posts have been disappearing the last 2 days on WHT. Let me try this again.
The server is new and do not have any websites setup yet. It's already getting these entries. Is this normal? Should we move to a different SSH port?

I used a little vServer with ubuntu (turnkey) and use logwatch to be informed by email about any errors. I'm confused about the following errors from Apache:

What difference between yum install php or manually install php from scrach (build, make and install)?
I know manually install could configure lots of parameters and paths, like --iconv, --mbsting, etc. I don't know anything behind yum install php. If I want to install php everything in the following:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/webserver/php --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/webserver/php/etc --with-mysql=/usr/local/webserver/mysql --with-mysqli=/usr/local/webserver/mysql/bin/mysql_config --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local --with-freetype-dir --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir --with-zlib --with-libxml-dir=/usr --enable-xml --disable-debug --disable-rpath --enable-discard-path --enable-safe-mode --enable-bcmath --enable-shmop --enable-sysvsem --enable-inline-optimization --with-curl --with-curlwrappers --enable-mbregex --enable-fastcgi --enable-fpm --enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-mbstring --with-mcrypt --with-gd --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-openssl --with-sendmail=/usr/sbin/sendmail
to installing linux software and have been beating my head for a couple of days. I just learned that I can use something on my CENTOS 5 - which is the same as RHEL 5 - to install the rpm and all dependencies.
Numeric-24.2-1.i586.rpm is the rpm I want to install, if that matters.
How can I do install it AND any dependencies?
I am trying to install the kernel source.
I have downloaded kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.src.rpm

kernel-devel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6
kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6
here is what I seen when I installed kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.src.rpm
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.src.rpm

So i have a dedicated server and here are the specs:

I want to install several VPS's on this server so i have one for shared users, one for reseller users and then the rest can be purchased. Unfortunately i have no idea how to install VPS's. Which is the best visualization software for VPS's? And how do i install and how to get whmcs to create them. Or are they already created?
I am also wondering about control panels and do vps's have to have their own separate control panel or do they all run of the main control panel.
Also what is the rule of thumb on how many vps's per server.
I'm willing to setup a new dedicated server that hosts only one website. before I just used Centos, it was free and worked perfect.
I dont want to spend any money for OS.
Which OS do you use?
Well I ordered a virtuzzo server and I am wondering on how do you install yum. Its a centos

I've tried two methods to create a vm.
virt-install
and

If I do virt-install, it asks me this:

I have no idea what to put it. I did try this:

Name Server: _________________________________________
note: only here in my post am I actually putting "xxx" in the IP for privacy reasons only. The 70.212 is the main server IP that I ssh into.
