Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.34 Severity: normal the patterns for pure-ftpd in ignore.d.server are not matching a user with a trailing whitespace. here a some examples:
Feb 18 13:02:33 web1 pure-ftpd: (stupid-pure-ftpd @84.56.131.73) [NOTICE] /example/example.txt downloaded (5908 bytes, 152196.03KB/sec) Feb 18 13:16:14 web1 pure-ftpd: (stupid-pure-ftpd @84.56.131.73) [INFO] Logout. every rule is affected! i have replaces the real username with 'stupid-pure-ftpd'. the trailing whitespace seems to be a bug from pure-ftpd. the user has definitely no trailing whitespace, but pure-ftpd sometimes logs messages with a trailing whitespace. those behaviours lead to a previous question: why not providing a single pattern which matches [INFO] and [NOTICE]. it's a pain for you the maintainer(s) an the users to report every single exeption. what if pure-ftpd changes it's behaviour in the next release? we have to start over and over again to keep the patterns at a usable state. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.26 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages logcheck depends on: ii adduser 3.59 Add and remove users and groups ii cron 3.0pl1-86 management of regular background p ii debconf [debconf 1.4.30.11 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.8.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii exim4-daemon-hea 4.34-10 Exim (v4) with extended features, ii lockfile-progs 0.1.10 Programs for locking and unlocking ii logcheck-databas 1.2.34 A database of system log rules for ii logtail 1.2.34 Print log file lines that have not ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20040524cvs-4 A simple mail user agent ii sysklogd [system 1.4.1-16 System Logging Daemon -- debconf information: logcheck/changes: * logcheck/install-note: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
