Yes, I did.

I've suspended monitoring the log files with problems
for now. I'll try again later in the week. I had to
work out another monitoring problem late last night.
I'll send a email on the problem because I need assistance.

Thanks....James

It uses Hobbit's "logfetch" utility, which basically opens the file for
reading.

Have you checked for errors in the client logs ? ~hobbit/client/logs/ on
the client system.
