Description:

Logcheck is a software package that is designed to automatically run and check
system log files for security violations and unusual activity. Logcheck
utilizes a program called logtail that remembers the last position it read
from in a log file and uses this position on subsequent runs to process new
information. All source code is available for review and the implementation
was kept simple to avoid problems. This package is a clone of the
frequentcheck.sh script from the Trusted Information Systems Gauntlet(tm)
firewall package. TIS has granted permission for me to clone this package.
