The way I deal with it is by the size of the message, day in day out the messages are usually +- a few bytes different in size when things go normal. Maybe write something that flags messages smaller or larger then the daily average of the runs... -mtl -------------------------------------------------- Michael Lapinski Computer Scientist GE Research -----Original Message----- From: Kurt Jaeger [mailto:lists@complx.LF.net] Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 3:41 PM To: Damian Gerow Cc: isp@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Daily/weekly/monthly output aggregation Hi!

We plan to replace the mailed output by centrally collecting the results and defining some sort of "needs action" output. But, well, we're not yet there. We need a solution, as well. -- MfG/Best regards, Kurt Jaeger 17 years to go !
