I like that idea. I would think it would be easier to use something like
rsyslog, put the logs into a MySQL or PostgreSQL database (you need this for
JFFNMS anyway) then do a database query of the logging database to coincide
with the normal poller.
The alerts could then be generated from that.
What do you think?
I am getting ready to dig into rsyslog, as it is the default in Fedora since
version 8, and has been introduced into RHEL as of version 5.2.
