Install Logtail on CentOS

I had a munin plugin script that uses the logtail program. Logtail comes with the ‘logcheck’ package – available in the EPEL repository. To install it make sure you have the EPEL repository installed. If not (for CentOS 6):
rpm -ivh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

With the EPEL repository installed, install logcheck:

yum install logcheck

Logtail is installed to:

/usr/sbin/logtail
