Well, it is going to be very painful to update hundreds of hosts.  
Regardless, I have created a new instance and just modified the new 
instance with our previous changes.  I still cannot get LOGS to work 
FILES.  I can get to work, but perhaps I found a bug?  Here is the entry:

client-local.cfg:file:/opt/app/apache/logs/access-test.log
hobbit-clients.cfg:     FILE /opt/app/apache/logs/access-test.log 
size<2000000 COLOR=red

Here is the result when alarming:

/opt/app/apache/logs/access-test.log
File is missing


And when you click the link:

ERROR: Value too large for defined data type


I am trying to test for a file size greater than 2G.  It would be very 
nice if the size could be represented in kilobytes, megabytes and 
gigabytes. K, M, and G.

Here is a  LOG entry that fails (none work):

client-local.cfg:log:/opt/app/apache/logs/error-test.log:10240
hobbit-clients.cfg:        LOG /opt/app/apache/logs/error-test.log 
MATCH="%Segmentation Fault" COLOR=red

The documentation appears out of date from your e-mail on the April 24th 
21:09 GMT?
