[Xymon] alert config feature request

[Galen Johnson]

Hey,

I think this may have gotten lost in a separate thread.  Reading the man
page for alerts.cfg, there are a few keywords that you can use to configure
alerts...in the hosts.cfg man page you can add a tag for CLASS that is only
for logs...

CLASS:Classname Force the host to belong to a specific class. Class-names
are used when configuring log-file monitoring (they can be used as
references in *client-local.cfg
<http://xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/client-local.cfg.5.html>(5)*
and *analysis.cfg
<http://xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/analysis.cfg.5.html>(5)* to
group log file checks). Normally, class-names are controlled on the client
by starting the Xymon client with the "--class=Classname" option. If you
specify it in the hosts.cfg file on the Xymon server, it overrides any
class name that the client reports.

It would be handy to allow alerts.cfg to trigger on this as well.  Not sure
what this would entail but would be very useful.

thx
