The Log Analysis mailing list is a forum for system administrators who are building and using a centralized logging infrastructure in their networks. Most of the discussion will focus on the care and feeding of syslog -- central loghosts, how to configure the devices in your network, how to secure your log infrastructure. We also talk about how to manage and process your log data. One of my primary goals for this list is to collect log data from attacks "in the wild," and to build configuration files for swatch and logsurfer that contain samples of these known attack signatures. Hopefully this will encourage more people to look at their logfiles regularly. I will also be publishing syslog configurations for devices as I collect them. This list is moderated by Tina Bird. To subscribe to the LogAnalysis mailing list, send an empty e-mail message to loganalysis-subscribe@securityfocus.com from the account you want to add. You'll be asked to confirm the subscription request, and sent a list of administrative commands for your subscription. And start talking! Thanks -- tbird
