KPSAD is a shell script that delivers PSAD alerts via KDE. It's a streamlined and easy-to-use tool for PSAD alert reporting.
If you're looking for a convenient way to report PSAD alerts through KDE, KPSAD is a great shell script to try out. One of the best things about this project is that it provides simple whitelisting capabilities to help you avoid getting bombarded with notifications. That being said, it's important to note that creating a whitelist file is a necessary step if you want to use KPSAD effectively. The .whitelist file should be placed in the same directory as the program so that KPSAD knows where to find it.
Once you have your whitelist set up, you can open KPSAD in your preferred text editor and add a mail client if desired. This feature is optional, but it allows you to run the program alongside PSAD without interference. Keep in mind that PSAD is required for KPSAD to work at all, and you'll want to edit the PSAD config file accordingly to point to KPSAD as the mail command.
In the future, the developer hopes to create a script that makes the installation process even smoother and allows users to modify their whitelists more easily. For now, you can check out the built-in sample whitelist as a reference. Keep in mind that KPSAD requires both PSAD and KDE to function properly.
In the most recent release, KPSAD has been updated with interactive whitelisting, firewall blocking, and DNS lookup on attacker for even more advanced functionality. Overall, if you're looking for a user-friendly way to report PSAD alerts through KDE, KPSAD is definitely worth checking out.
