Logwatch is a popular system administration tool that collects output on a regular basis from syslog messages and summarizes them so they're easier to scan through. The DNSSEC-Tools package contains a patch to logwatch that adds support for summarizing DNSSEC related output from the bind nameserver. This patch is already included in the default logwatch base source code starting with version 7.1.
