i've left this mail unread (as "to reply someday") for too long, but the
README bits about giving access to authlog bother me. changing group
ownership or perms on authlog won't fly on the long term, as newsyslog
will reset those at its next run, so in that case /etc/newsyslog.conf
also needs tweaking. putting the _reaction user in wheel group is
awkward too.
sorry, but as-is i don't have a better suggestion, and maybe that's why
in the end i kept silent on this, and kept reaction running as root
(which might not be a good idea either, i acknowledge that..)
as for the timeout thing, does putting 120 solve the locking issue ?
