Default [SOLVED] viewing logs--webmin?

For my non-Unix-savvy colleagues, I would like to give them an easy way to view and search /var/log/zimbra.log and (less important) /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log

I noticed that webmin has been mentioned at least for viewing. Any pointers or caveats on how to set this up? (I've already set up webmin a couple times, but only to manage BIND; I haven't really used the other modules.) Does it allow one to view older logs or only the current log?

As for searching, obviously this could be done in the web browser but it would be nice to be able to enter a string or regular expression in a field and then only output log lines that match.

I'd be grateful for any information or help on this.

Okay, that was easy enough. I just installed Webmin 1.470 and went to System>System Logs. Perhaps not ideal, but I can look into other tools later as described at http://www.zimbra.com/forums/adminis...phic-tool.html
