 Sorry...  I am going to reformat it.  Timestamp of the file is
available through CVS, will check the log who commited it and use that
in the format line. I hope I won't forget, because my offline version
has now my name and address in there, and I don't want to claim that
entry for myself.  :)

 Again, sorry for the delay.

 And now, todd did it. Well, my own fault :)  <nitpick>Although
according to the time in CVS his entry is 15 minutes off.</nitpick>

 If it isn't done yet I might want to take a look at it. Though I am not
a native speaker I hope my writing skills are not the worst. (At least
you accepted my rewrite of the templates. :))

 I've read your close message, but simply don't understand it
correctly....  Please get back to me on this, maybe in german. :)

 What I meant is that if logcheck notices tampering with a file it
should notice this in the mails. Not few root kits do in fact tamper
with the logfiles, so it should rather complain in some way than ignore
the tampering. That was my original meaning why I don't think that its a
bug but a feature. Of course a strange feature that should get a more
meaningful warning message, but still a good feature.

 Cool. If you find interesting projects/pics send the URLs!!

 So long,
Alfie
