1 Epylog is a syslog parser which runs periodically,
2 looks at your logs, processes some of the entries
3 in order to present them in a more comprehensible format,
4 and then mails you the output.
5 It is written specifically for large network clusters
6 where a lot of machines (around 50 and upwards) log to the
7 same loghost using syslog or syslog-ng.
8 It is an alternative to a similar package, called LogWatch.
10 The epylog engine should work on most unix systems running
11 Python-2.2 and above, although currently the processing modules
12 are only written to work with linux (and particularly Red Hat Linux
14 However, other unix and linux flavors should work fine,
15 as long as they use standard logging facilities and things like PAM.
