Public bug reported: When my system mounts a bunch of drives at once over cifs (as it does every time I boot it) a message is generated in auth.log like this:
Oct 1 07:51:49 myservername smbd: message repeated 2 times: [ pam_unix(samba:session): session opened for user myusername by (uid=0)] When logwatch picks this up, it appends the close-square-bracket from the message to the user name, so the email I get from logwatch has this in it: myusername]: 2 Time(s) instead of including these entries under the un-appended version of my user name. So basically I get two entries every day, one for myusername, and one for myusername]. Big deal? No. But it's annoying, and should be a trivial fix. ** Affects: logwatch (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720710 Title: "Message repeated" entries in auth.log show wrong username in logwatch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logwatch/+bug/1720710/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
