Hi,

I usually use bofhlog, you can find it in freshmeat.net ... the purpose is for 
"tailing" the log file.

And we configured bofhlog to monitor the error messages from <hostname>.err ... with 
keyword : shutdown or restart ... if bofhlog found a line with one of these keywords, 
then it will alarm you via anything you want (using other tools).

It's real time monitoring ;-)
