logcheck for Debian
-------------------
Configuration settings for logcheck are set in the file
/etc/logcheck/logcheck.conf. To change the email address you should
change the line:
SENDMAILTO="root"
to:
SENDMAILTO="emailaddress@some.domain.tld"
The reportlevel (that is, the degree of filtering applied to "routine"
system events) can be reduced from the default by changing the line:
REPORTLEVEL="server"
to:
REPORTLEVEL="workstation"
or:
REPORTLEVEL="paranoid"
There are a number of other options which are documented in
/etc/logcheck/logcheck.conf itself.
By default logcheck is set to run once an hour. This can be changed by
editing /etc/cron.d/logcheck.
Please note that the permissions of rulefiles installed with dh_installlogcheck after installing logcheck will differ from those included in logcheck-database.
This is because dh_installlogcheck cannot yet assume that the logcheck user
exists. This may be changed in a future version of Debian.
The documentation is being updated as time allows.
