Epylog - New log notifier and parser

DULog is a new log notifier and parser that periodically tails system logs on Unix systems, parses the output to present it in an easily readable format (parsing modules currently exist only for Linux), and mails a final report to the administrator. It can run daily or hourly.

Epylog is written specifically for large clusters where many systems (50+) log to a single loghost using syslog or syslog-ng. It can be used on standalone systems, but other packages (ie logwatch) are probably more suitable for such purposes.

This project was formerly known as 'DUlog.'
