Da provare! About alerttail
Alerttail executes actions when “certain text” has been written to a file. Imagine you want to be warned when some text is written to a log file, you could just configure alerttail asking it to notify you with a gtk notify popup. For example when i start my proftpd server for desktop file sharing i would like to monitor when somebody logs in and downloads a file. To know that i would configure alerttail to analyse /var/log/proftpd/proftpd.log and /var/log/proftpd/xferlog. Or if i would like to know when somebody execute a “su” command i will configure alerttail to listen to /var/log/auth.log. Same thing for samba access, kernel , mail, gaim events or any other log file event. Another interesting scenario is iptables monitoring. If we want to know if a remote host try to direct connect to our box we will ask alerttail to monitor /var/log/messages and alert us with a notify popup with a link to googleMaps for GeoIp Localization A QT4 Gui is provided to help people configuring alerttail.
