A *much* better alternative to logwatch is logcheck. It emails you on
log file exceptions instead of emailing you everyday with stuff you
don't care about. I run logcheck hourly on all my servers and with
properly tuned ignore files, it's quiet unless there's something that I
need to know about.

Ed,
Do you have a URL for downloading logcheck? I can't find it on the RH site, and
the only other location I can find it
http://linux.maruhn.com/sec/logcheck.html
seems to have products geared primarily for Debian and FreeBSD.
