  • Monitoring BBS logs

    From Gamgee@618:250/24 to All on Thursday, January 25, 2024 21:12:00
    Hello all,

    Wondering what you all do/use for monitoring logs on your boards,
    specifically those running under Linux.

    I have a few terminals open to "tail" various logs on my system (running Synchronet). Been doing it that way for a long while, and it works fine,
    I guess.

    Has anyone used the 'lnav' utility to watch logs? It's pretty slick, has
    LOTS of options, and I like the use of colors in logs to help things "jump
    out" at you. If anyone is using this, and has taken the time to customize
    the look/feel of how it displays, would you comment on how you're using
    it, and would you maybe be willing to share your custom config that I
    could use as a starting point to learn how it's done?

    Appreciate any input you may have!
