[Box Backup] Checking that bbackupd's are backing up?

[Adrian]

Martin,

There are actually several files that have to be created/modified to set
up logwatch, I suggest reading up on how to set up a service on your
particular installation.  If you need more guidance, let me know, and I
will try to write up a little how-to.  The file that does the actual work
is a perl script something like below (I apologize in advance for the
complete lack of comments).

		$flag=0;
		foreach $client (@clients) {
			if($client eq $field[8]) {
				$hits[$i]++;
				$flag=1;

			$i++;
		}
		if ($flag==0) {
			push(@clients,$field[8]);
			$hits[$i]++;
		}
	}
}
$i=1;
foreach $client (@clients) {
	print "Client ",$client," ",@hits[$i]," Times\n";
	$i++;
}
exit(0);
