NAME
       qssign - an utility to sign and verify the integrity of log data.

SYNOPSIS
       qssign -s|S <secret> [-e] [-v] [-u <name>] [-f <regex>] [-a 'sha1'|'sha256']

DESCRIPTION
       qssign is a log data integrity check tool. It reads log data from stdin (pipe) and writes the
       data to stdout adding a sequence number and signatur to ever log line.

OPTIONS
       -s <secret>
              Passphrase used to calculate signature.

       -S <program>
              Specifies a program which writes the passphrase to stdout.

       -e     Writes start/end marker when starting/stopping data signing.

       -v     Verification mode checking the integrity of signed data.

       -u <name>
              Becomes another user, e.g. www-data.

       -f <regex>
              Filter pattern (case sensitive regular expression) for messages which do not  need  to
              be signed.

       -a 'sha1'|'sha256'
              Specifes the algorithm to use. Default is sha1.

EXAMPLE
       Sign:

        TransferLog  "|/usr/bin/qssign  -s  password  -e  |/usr/bin/qsrotate  -o /var/log/apache/ac‐
       cess.log"


       Verify:

        cat access.log | qssign -s password -v
