The /var/log/messages file has rw-r-r-- access rights so the hobbit user can
read the file.

Hi Manocchia,
It could be access rights, if you are running hobbit using the init script
it will run as user hobbit and make sure that hobbit user can read
/var/log/messages

I have a small problem. I've set up monitoring of the /var/log/messages
logfile to search for the string "authentication failure" and alert with a
yellow button in the MSG column. I can see the error displayed when I click
on the button below the Msg column header but it does not turn yellow.
Below is the entry in the clients-local.cfg file:
[batman]
log:/var/log/messages:10240
ignore MARK
This is the entry in the hobbit-clients.cfg file:
HOST=batman
LOG /var/log/messages authentication failure color=yellow
Why doesn't this give me a yellow alert.
Thanks
