Checksuite is a collection of Perl-based programs tailored for easing standard system administration duties.
The programs are intended to enhance the user's experience, and can be customized to their specific liking. The creator views the project as an opportunity to develop their programming skills further, and welcomes any feedback on their work. To install the programs, simply run "sh install.sh" from the command line. These programs have been tested for Linux OS, and can be used on other flavors of *nix.
The primary programs are installed in /usr/local/sbin/, with a man page under /usr/man/man1, a cron file under /etc/cron.d/, and a logrotate config file under /etc/logrotate.d/. All logs are located in /var/log/checksuite.d/. The latest release of the program includes the addition of two more false positives to checkhardware, a fix for the "Disk Usage by Content" of a particular directory in checkdisk, and a new threshold parameter in checksyn which allows an IP to be blocked after a specific number of SYN flood attempts.
In conclusion, Checksuite is a useful tool for system administrators looking for assistance with everyday tasks involved in monitoring their system. While it is not a replacement for an actual system administrator, it can enhance the user's experience and provide customized solutions. The program is easy to install and comes with comprehensive logs for optimal performance. The creator welcomes feedback and is constantly improving the software to better serve the needs of users.
