Hmm, I found:
/etc/periodic/security/700.kernelmsg
which seems to be what generates the information I was talking about in the=
email. So I guess you were correct that it's not from /var/log/messages=
after all.
Having said that, I don't have any idea if there is something in that small=
script that I could change to increase the number of lines it puts into=
the email. It's a bourne shell script, it appears:
if [ -r /etc/defaults/periodic.conf ]
then
. /etc/defaults/periodic.conf
source_periodic_confs
fi
. /etc/periodic/security/security.functions
rc=3D0
case "$daily_status_security_kernelmsg_enable" in
[Yy][Ee][Ss])
dmesg 2>/dev/null |
check_diff new_only dmesg - "${host} kernel log messages:"
rc=3D$?;;
*) rc=3D0;;
esac
exit $rc
And thanks for that script - I'll give it a try.
Chris
