Logwatch is really designed to be run as a cronjob which sends you an
email after it has parsed through your logs. The configuration for
logwatch is located in the /etc/log.d/ directory. In that directory
you will find many scripts and configuration options for a wide range
of different log file
I've never tried runit, but being an initng dev, I'm expected to be
somewhat biased.
Having just had a quick look at runit, it appears we have the larger
collection of init scripts, however being simple bash scripts it could
be expected that runit's are slightly easier to make.
