To edit (add/remove) files from it, first of all, you will need to copy the file to a custom directory as:
mkdir -p /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom
cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom
cp -p ../logs.list .Now you can edit the custom file /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom/logs.list . To add a new entry from the command line, use:
echo "path_to_log_file=description" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom/logs.list Example for adding the csf – lfd log:
echo "/var/log/lfd.log=lfd log" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom/logs.list
