Hello,
The problem statement: IRC is a very useful collaboration tool. In order
to keep track of the conversations, IRC logs are needed. This is especially
important for businesses.
The solution: IRSSI IRC client + screen + cron + custom perl script to mail
IRC logs to any e-mail address.
Result:
- IRC logs are mailed to the selected e-mail addresses on a periodic basis
(e.g., on a daily basis) in addition to having them in the server
- No human interaction is required - everrything works at the unix server
As for me, this is mini-howto. It compiles several unix tools and makes a
solution out of them. I think this document could be useful for the users
of tldp.
I was unable to find anything similar in tldp.org.
What do you think, guys? Is it a valid idea?
Good bye!
