nms2dlf - convert Netscape Messaging Server SMTP log files to the email DLF SYNOPSIS
nms2dlf STDIN STDOUT DESCRIPTION
This program converts Netscape Messaging Server log file generated by the SMTP service to the email DLF. To process correctly the log file, you need to turn on logging of the following modules: - SMTP-Accept - SMTP-Deliver - Error-Handler - Mailbox-Deliver (Need to be enabled) LIMITATIONS
This DLF converter was developed for the Netscape Messaging Server version 4.1. Other versions may or may not work. Contact the LogReport developers if you have problems with that converter. You can find information about the log format used by Netscape Messaging Server at the following URL: http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/messaging/41/ag/logging.htm Not all messages are documented. And we found errors in the documentation. The fields msgID and mailFrom are inversed in both SMTP-Accept and SMTP-Deliver from what described the documentation. CONFIGURING LOGGING OF MAILBOX-DELIVER MODULE We found that there are no logs from the Mailbox-Delivery module by default. In order to fix that problem please make sure you do the following: 1. Go on the Netscape Messaging Server 4 MTA or Message Store 2. Become the Mail Server user (usually this should not be root but typically a user like mailsrv or whatever was defined at installation time, check for the ownership of the files in your message server instance for example) 3. Go to the right location, something like: server-root/msg-instance For example it could be: /usr/netscape/server4/msg-mymailserver 4. Do: $ ./configutil -o service.smtp.mailbox-deliver.log -v yes OK SET 5. Then become root, go again to your instance directory like: /usr/netscape/server4/msg-mymailserver and do: # ./stop-msg smtp /usr/netscape/server4: Stopping SMTP daemon 16279 .... done: 16279 # ./start-msg smtp /usr/netscape/server4: Starting SMTP daemon ..... done: 10820 And then you will start seeing lines which will look like the following: [19/Jul/2002:08:31:54 +0200] amail2 smtpd[10820]: General Notice: SMTP-Accept:GZHGT501.C01:<200207190632.g6J6W7Y01389@ esmtp.orangemail.ch>:[192.168.30.2]:192.168.30.2: <newsletter@gamezone.com>:19514:1:<hmarmy@orangemail.ch> [19/Jul/2002:08:31:54 +0200] amail2 smtpd[10820]: General Notice: Mailbox-Deliver:GZHGT501.C01:<200207190632.g6J6W7Y01389@ esmtp.orangemail.ch>:19516:1:hmarmy; If this was not done the line with the pattern Mailbox-Deliver above will not be present and the program will give wrong results. A warning will be output in the error log. EXAMPLES
To process a log as produced by Netscape Messaging Server $ nms2dlf < mail.log nms2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report: $ lr_log2report nms < /var/log/mail.log VERSION
