Well, IMHO this isn't job of the daemon, it's the job of a log monitoring program. You can use logsurfer to monitor your logfiles in realtime and run a programm if an "attack" happens. http://www.cert.dfn.de/eng/logsurf/ seems that there's no debian packages at the moment, but it's easy to compile. > - Andrew best regards, Jens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
