Overview

LogSentry (formerly Logcheck) automatically monitors your system logs and mails security violations to you on a periodic basis. It is based on a program that ships with the TIS Gauntlet firewall but has been improved upon in many ways to make it work nicely for normal system auditing.

Features

LogSentry helps in processing UNIX system logfiles generated by:
Psionic's PortSentry
Psionic's HostSentry
system daemons
Wietse Venema's TCP Wrapper and Log Daemon packages
Firewall Toolkit® by Trusted Information Systems® Inc.(TIS).

LogSentry also works very well at reporting on other common operating system security violations and strange events.
The latest version of LogSentry (version 1.1.1) is now covered by the GNU license.
