Logging

Description - The logging object contains settings related to the status and logging functions of WebGate. Beneath this object you can also access all the logs for each individual WebGate module.

Settings
Log to Disk - checking this box turns on WebGate's logging to disk feature. WebGate will log to text files information about each message accepted and delivered. Log to Disk must be enabled to see information in the log objects in the admin program.  

Detailed Log - when detailed logging is selected, the history logs will contain more detailed information about what is happening in each of WebGate's modules (especially the dialers).  

Max Log Length - each night the log files are trimmed down so that they are no longer than this setting (measured in characters - previous versions of WebGate measured this in lines)  

Enable WG Monitor - The WebGate Monitor program allows you to monitor WebGate real-time. WG Monitor can be run on the local computer, or from any location accessible via TCP/IP. For more information, refer to the section 'WebGate Monitor'  

WG Monitor Port - the TCP/IP port number for WebGate to communicate with WG Monitor.  

WG Monitor Host 0 - the Host0 address is always set to 127.0.0.1. This is the localhost address, which means if WG Monitor is enabled, status information will always be sent to the WG Monitor program running on the local computer.  

WG Monitor Host 1-3 - the host name or IP address of computers that will run the WG Monitor program.

GetMail Log - If logging is enabled, this log shows the activities of the GetMail interface, including all messages accepted and rejected by it.
