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

*Subject:* [hobbit] LOG alert not showing yellow
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
