Hi All,

I a bit of a newbie to hobbit / xymon so please forgive me.

I have been trying to get my hobbit server to monitor a file called
/home/xymon/test.txt, so I can log the growth on it, should I append
TRACK to it?

I have modified client-local.cfg and added
[linux]
log:/var/log/messages:10240
file:/home/xymon/test.txt

I have no data in hobbit to show for this what am I doing wrong?

Thanks
