How to Filter Log Files Based on Date in Linux

Linux logs are the most important files which tell us what is happening with the Linux kernel, distribution, its boot process, applications, and more. Whenever a problem happens, log files are the first files we have to consult to see what went wrong.

For example, the Linux boot process is so fast that we can’t see it, but fortunately for us, we can read it as it is stored in a /var/log/boot.log file. On Linux distributions, there are various Linux commands to read log files.
