What you probably want to do is add this as an entry for the host in the
hobbit-clients.cfg file on the server. That way you can have a central
location for this type of thing. However, local config is also
acceptable.

However, you will have to add an entry into the hobbit-clients.cfg file
on the hobbit server for the specific OS this client is for the logfile
monitoring. There should already be an entry for /var/log/messages so
one will be needed for /var/adm/messages
