Well it took me 5 minutes to assemble a perl script for ip paranoia daemons, acting as a 'smart grep' and cutting useless information and showing the important. It can be as easy for the others, I believe, but now I don't have the time to create a nicely distributable (config file driven at least) version. Just use 4-5 greps in a crontab entry, so the important output residue will end up in your mailbox. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
