Lire, the french word for `to read', is a toolset of logfile analysers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Lire package is targeted at automatically generating useful
|
|
|
|
reports from raw log files from various services. Currently, Lire
|
|
|
|
can generate reports for a variety of email, web, dns, ftp, print
|
|
|
|
servers and firewalls, and supports multiple output formats.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lire is built around the concept of a superservice. A superservice
|
|
|
|
is a class of applications which share the same reports. Lire
|
|
|
|
supports 6 superservices: dns, email, firewall, ftp, print and www.
|
|
|
|
This means that log files for all supported email servers (service
|
|
|
|
in Lire's parlance) will get similar reports. This is important for
|
|
|
|
heterogeneous environments where you could have e.g. Sendmail and
|
|
|
|
Postfix mail servers running. You will get similar reports which
|
|
|
|
you can compare.
