- iwatch: realtime filesystem monitoring program using inotify
inotify (inode notify) is a Linux kernel subsystem that monitors
events in filesystems and reports those events to applications in
real time.
.
inotify can be used to monitor individual files or directories.
When a directory is monitored, inotify will return events for the
directory itself and for files inside the directory.
.
iWatch is a Perl wrap to inotify to monitor changes in specific
directories or files, sending alarms to the system administrator
(or other destination) in real time. It can:
.
- Send notifications via email about changes.
- Take programmable actions immediately, as emitting alerts via
XMPP (jabber) messengers, Telegram or executing a local program
or script.
- Act as HIDS (Host-based Intrusion Detection System) or an
integrity checker, complementing the firewall system in
networks and improving the security.
.
iWatch can run as a simple command, as well a daemon.
.
A good example of iWatch usage is to monitor the pages directory
in webservers to warn, in real time, about defacements or file
insertions. Other example is to synchronize configuration files
between machines, when they are changed, as in DHCP servers acting
in failover mode. You also use to synchronize files, via rsync,
when these files are changed.
