logwatch with systemd

Hi guys

Now that systemd has taken over the duties of syslog / metalog and the likes, have there been any attempts at porting logwatch to systemd, or can anyone suggest steps on how to do this?

Re: logwatch with systemd

I think the only option you have currently is to have systemd forward the logs to syslog-ng or similar.

Looking for something like that as well.. probably is definitely coming when RHEL switches to systemd, I think

Re: logwatch with systemd

This thread motivated to start a small project which can simply filter out uninteresting lines and then send you an email: journalwatch.

There's also a patch and a hack available for logwatch in their bugtracker.


>>> from __future__ import braces
  File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: not a chance
