TALLY.CONTROL(8)					    InterNetNews Documentation						  TALLY.CONTROL(8)

NAME

       tally.control - Keep track of newsgroup creations and deletions

SYNOPSIS

       tally.control < logfile

DESCRIPTION

       tally.control is normally daily invoked by scanlogs.  It reads its standard input, which should be the newgroup.log and rmgroup.log control
       log files.  They contain a summary line describing the control message and the action taken by controlchan, followed by the article
       indented by four spaces, and a blank line.  Then, tally.control updates the cumulative list of newsgroup creations and deletions which is
       kept in control.log.

       All these log files reside in the pathlog directory set in inn.conf.  In order to generate them, you need to enable control articles
       logging in control.ctl(5), as explained in the control.log entry of newslog(5).

FILES

       pathbin/tally.control
	   The Shell script itself used to tally newsgroup creations and deletions up.

       pathlog/control.log
	   This file maintains a count of the number of newgroup and rmgroup control messages seen for each newsgroup.	The count is of the number
	   of control messages with the indicated arguments, regardless if they were actually processed.  All control arguments, including invalid
	   ones, are counted.  An example of lines which can be found in that log file is:

	       3 Control: newgroup foo.bar moderated
	       3 Control: rmgroup misc.removed
	       1 Control: newgroup misc.created
