    Tripwire -- Output To .txt File

    Is there a way to tell tripwire to save the reports in plain text? If not, is there any way you can transfer the data into a text file for removal via floppy and review in plain text.

    Not sure if this is going to help much, but you can configure tripwire to e-mail reports.

    Configuring Tripwire to send email reports with sendmail (Command line)

    Hope it helps a bit.

    No internet connection to this system. I know you can also get it to print. However, the only plain text method is in terminal and I can't copy and paste from terminal to txt file.

    I checked the "Tripwire for Servers User Guide" and it states:

    Tripwire for servers generates report files in plain text format by default.
    It also states you can generate them in either HTML or XML using command line options.

    Good find, but this is not a server. It is just a laptop used to test out features.

    Sorry mate, I am out of suggestions. I did find another user manual for tripwire, but it had nothing in it that would solve your problem. I hope somebody else can give you a hand.

    Why not just output it to a file?

    tripwire --check > report.txt

    The formatting might not be all that great....

    Or am I confused as to what you are trying to do?
    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.
