# This file lists the default values of the variables, unless
# it is listed as an example, in which case it merely illustrates
# one possible option.
#
# The preferred way of changing a variable is not by changing
# this file. Rather, you can override the variable by re-assigning
# it locally. The default location for this override file is
# /etc/logwatch/conf/logwatch.conf
#
# You can override many of these variables on the command line.
# Comments are indicated by the '#' character. Any characters after
# that are ignored, even if not on the first column.
# Variables are in the format of <name> = <value>. Whitespace at the
# beginning and end of the lines is removed. Whitespace before and after
# the = sign is removed. Both names and values are case insensitive,
# except when indicated.
# For all these variables, only literal strings are allowed. That is,
# variables cannot be used to set the value.
# Here are the synonyms that can be used for any variable that expects
# one of these values:
# Yes = True = On = 1
# No = False = Off = 0
# You can override the default temp directory (/tmp) here
# TmpDir = /var/cache/logwatch
# To format using HTML use Format = html
# Format = text
# For HTML output, this variable sets the maximum line length:
# HTML_Wrap = 80
# The default, Encode = none, is the same as Encode = 8bit.
# To make Base64 [aka uuencode] use Encode = base64
# You can also specify 'Encode = 7bit', but only if all text is ASCII only.
# Encode = none
# Input Encoding
# Logwatch assumes that the input is in UTF-8 encoding. Defining CharEncoding
# will use iconv to convert text to the UTF-8 encoding. Set CharEncoding
# to an empty string to use the default current locale. If set to a valid
# encoding, the input characters are converted to UTF-8, discarding any
# illegal characters. Valid encodings are as used by the iconv program,
# and `iconv -l` lists valid character set encodings.
# Setting CharEncoding to UTF-8 simply discards illegal UTF-8 characters.
# CharEncoding = ""
# Output/Format Options
# By default Logwatch will print to stdout in text with no encoding.
# To make email Default set Output = mail to save to file set Output = file
# Output = stdout
# If Output is set to "file", a filename must be provided for the
# Filename variable. The results will be saved to this file.
# The value of this variable is case-sensitive. For example,
# Filename = "/tmp/Logwatch"
# Default person to mail reports to. Can be a local account or a
# complete email address. Variable Output should be set to mail, or
# --output mail should be passed on command line to enable mail feature.
# If the environmental variable MAILTO is set, it becomes the default.
# This value is case-sensitive.
# MailTo = root
# When using the mail feature, the subject can be set to a literal string.
# The default is an empty string:
# Subject = ""
# Using the default of an empty string will cause the equivalent of the
# following string to be used: "Logwatch for $(hostname) ($(uname -s))"
# But because only a literal string is allowed in the configuration file,
# no variables may be passed in the string.
# For example:
# Subject = "Logwatch from ExampleHostname"
# The subject can also be set with the command switch --subject, which also
# allows shell decoding of variables.
# When using option --multiemail, it is possible to specify a different
# email recipient per host processed. For example, to send the report
# for hostname host1 to user@example.com, use:
#Mailto_host1 = user@example.com
# Multiple recipients can be specified by separating them with a space.
# Default person to mail reports from. Can be a local account or a
# complete email address.
# MailFrom = Logwatch
# Use archives? If set to 'Yes', the archives of logfiles
# (i.e. /var/log/messages.1 or /var/log/messages.1.gz) will
# be searched in addition to the /var/log/messages file.
# This usually will not do much if your range is set to just
# 'Yesterday' or 'Today'... it is probably best used with Range = All
# By default this is now set to Yes.
# Archives = Yes
# The default time range for the report...
# The current choices are All, Today, Yesterday
# Range = yesterday
# The default detail level for the report.
# This can either be Low, Med, High or a number.
# Low is a synonym for 0, Med is 5, and High is 10.
# Detail = Low
# The 'Service' option expects either the name of a filter
# (in /usr/share/logwatch/scripts/services/*) or 'All'.
# It indicates the default service(s) to report on. This should be
# left as All for most systems.
Service = All
# You can also disable certain services (when specifying all)
Service = "-zz-network" # Prevents execution of zz-network service, which
# prints useful network configuration info.
Service = "-zz-sys" # Prevents execution of zz-sys service, which
# prints useful system configuration info.
Service = "-eximstats" # Prevents execution of eximstats service, which
# is a wrapper for the eximstats program.
# Because the above sets "All" as the default, and disables certain
# services, you can also set the Service variable to an empty string
# in your local logwatch.conf (by default, under /etc/logwatch/conf).
# That resets the setting of Service, after which you can assign to it
# specific services that you want executed.
# The following are more examples of using the Service variable:
# If you only cared about FTP messages, you could use these 2 lines
# instead of the above:
# Service = ftpd-messages # Processes ftpd messages in /var/log/messages
# Service = ftpd-xferlog # Processes ftpd messages in /var/log/xferlog
# Maybe you only wanted reports on PAM messages, then you would use:
# Service = pam_pwdb # PAM_pwdb messages - usually quite a bit
# Service = pam # General PAM messages... usually not many
# You can also choose to use the 'LogFile' option. This will cause
# logwatch to only analyze that one logfile. For example:
# LogFile = messages
# will process /var/log/messages. This will run all the filters that
# process that logfile. This option is probably not too useful, except
# for debugging. Each service lists its own Logfile options.
# By default we assume that all Unix systems have sendmail or a sendmail-like MTA.
# The mailer code prints a header with To: From: and Subject:.
# At this point you can change the mailer to anything that can handle this output
# stream.
# TODO test variables in the mailer string to see if the To/From/Subject can be set
# From here with out breaking anything. This would allow mail/mailx/nail etc..... -mgt
# This value is case-sensitive.
# mailer = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t"
# With this option set to a comma separated list of hostnames, only log entries
# for these particular hosts will be processed. This can allow a log host to
# process only its own logs, or Logwatch can be run once per a set of hosts
# included in the logfiles. The hostnames are case-sensitive.
# Example: HostLimit = hosta,hostb,myhost
#
# The default is to report on all log entries, regardless of its source host.
# Note that some logfiles do not include host information and will not be
# influenced by this setting.
# Default Log Directory
# All log files are assumed to be given relative to the LogDir directory.
# Multiple LogDir statements are possible. Additional configuration variables
# to set particular directories follow, so LogDir need not be set.
# This value is case-sensitive.
# For example:
# LogDir = /var/log
#
# By default /var/adm is searched after LogDir.
# AppendVarAdmToLogDirs = 1
#
# By default /var/log is to be searched after LogDir and /var/adm/ .
# AppendVarLogToLogDirs = 1
#
# The current working directory can be searched after the above. Not set by
# default.
# AppendCWDToLogDirs = 0
# Logwatch can decompress log files (often the case for archived log files -
# that is, older log files rotated and compressed.
# The following variables set the default compression programs:
# PathTozcat = "zcat"
# PathTobzcat = "bzcat"
# PathToxzcat = "zxcat"
# vi: shiftwidth=3 tabstop=3 et
