Swatch and sendxmpp to rescue!

Friday, August 12, 2005

In these days there are lots of kids using hacking tools that try to log in via ssh.

My servers are attacked every day in this way.

I decided to add swatch to monitor log files.

Also I installed sendxmpp to send xmpp messages ( jabber ) to my jabber server.

The combination is great!

Both tools, swatch and sendxmpp are written in Perl, and to be installed depend on other perl modules which are properly installed via cpan.
