help with LOG check

[Rolf Schrittenlocher]

Hi,

it seems I haven't understood the log checks right :-( The goal I want 
to achieve is getting a log always presented in hobbit "msgs" "Full log" 
in its total, wether there are changes in it or not.

My settings on the server:
hobbit-clients.cfg:
    LOG /pica/prod/log/pica.log STAT IGNORE=%20032 HOST=lbsprod
client-local.cfg:
    [lbsprod]
log:`/pica/ffm/com/sys/hobbit/client/ext/reduce_message.ksh`:20480

The script reduce_message.ksh creates a modified copy of the log, adds 
`date +%H%M%S` at the beginning of each line (example:

Stand 12:58:59 2006-11-06 12:39:52:94 UPD2000_60           STAT=00000001 CPL\FET \PPN 182300404 P
Stand 12:58:59 2006-11-06 12:39:52:95 UPD2000_60           STAT=00000001 167: Beschreibung ist NICHT vorhanden.
Stand 12:58:59 2006-11-06 12:40:52:00 UPD1000_60           STAT=          LBS databse error. Foutcode uit database is 104400300

) and returns the log's name. So the log timestamp and content always 
differs from the old one and I hoped I could get hobbit to consider the 
whole log always as new and to send the total. Unfortunately it doesn't, 
it sends the last  8 lines (942 Byte) while the whole log has 11 kB: 
-rw-r--r--   1 bb       prod       11043 Nov  3 13:20 
/pica/prod/log/pica.log

Any ideas what I am doing wrong or how to achieve the goal?

thanks for help
Rolf
