Disable Logwatch on Clients if a Logserver Exists

If your site have a central logserver which has been configured to report on logs received from all systems, then

# rm /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch

If no logserver exists, it will be necessary for each machine to run Logwatch individually.

Using a central logserver provides the security and reliability benefits discussed earlier, and also makes monitoring logs easier and less time-intensive for administrators.
