What good advice do you have for setting up and managing logging on a Debian box? I come from a Red Hat 9.0 environment, where there was a rather convenient integrated GUI that let you browse the various logfiles - very useful to see all the failed logins to your SSH account as people tried to break in, for example.
Is there something similar for managing all the logfiles generated by your programs in Debian? How about if you have a text-only environment?
Descriptions of your current logging setup would be great - along with things to definitely do, and to absolutely avoid... =)
