trying to monitor LOG files on a Linux OS via the Hobbit client<BR>monitor <A
href="http://4.2.0." target=_blank>4.2.0.</A> I have some issue : file
information are not send back to<BR>the server. I've checked the ML & the
conf file :<BR> #
************ IMPORTANT
***************<BR> # To monitor a logfile, you *MUST*
configure both client-local.cfg<BR> # and
hobbit-clients.cfg. If you configure only the client-local.cfg<BR>
# file, the client will collect the log data and you can view it
in<BR> # the "client data" display, but it will not affect
the color of the<BR> # "msgs" status. On the other hand,
if you configure only the<BR> # hobbit-clients.cfg file,
then there will be no log data to inspect,<BR> # and you
will not see any updates of the "msgs" status either.<BR><BR> BTW,
client-local.cfg & hobbit-clients.cfg does not exist anymore
;).<BR>Anyway, I put this on my client side localclient.cfg file
:<BR><BR> # FILE Check<BR>
FILE /var/log/messages SIZE>0 MTIME<1200 yellow<BR>
FILE /var/log/messages red "timed
out!"<BR> FILE /var/log/messages red
"abort!"<BR><BR> # LOG<BR>
LOG %/var/log/messages %(I/O|read).error
COLOR=red<BR><BR> ll /var/log/messages<BR> -rw-r----- 1 root adm
5530 May 29 16:25 /var/log/messages<BR><BR> Hobbit is in the "adm" group,
it can read the file. So why my Hobbit<BR>server keep saying "No files
checked" ?<BR><BR> Thanks by advance!<BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR><BR
