Each server should write it's own daily report on cron, and you just pick them up using scp with passwordless public key access and yesterday's date. The reporting system script should annotate the report with any warnings for easy collection into an alert email. You should get a report summary email daily, with the warnings highlighted/up front/counted prominently.

My first help would be to suggest ksh! They write articles on how many ways csh is bad. dtksh is a more advanced and expanded ksh, and solaris has it. coshells would be nice to have, but solaris supports <() even in base ksh.

The checksecurity.conf file defines several configuration variables: MAILTO, CHECK_DISKFREE, CHECK_PASSWD and CHECK_SETUID LOGDIR. Each is described below. The checksecurity program works with a collection of plugins which are located in /usr/share/checksecurity and are configured individually by their own configuration file. CHECK_PASSWD If this is set to TRUE then the check-passwd script will be invoked. This script is designed to report upon system accounts which have no passwords. CHECK_DISKFREE If this is set to TRUE then the check-diskfree script will be invoked and will allow an alert to be sent if there is any mounted partition is running short on disk space. CHECK_SETUID If this is set to TRUE then the check-setuid script will be invoked, this will compare the setuid binaries upon the system to those that existed previously and show the differences.
