Re: [Nagios-users] syslog monitoring

[Harper Mann]

There is a file in the nagiosplug contrib called check_log2.pl.  It makes a temporary file with the byte offset from the last check so it starts the new check at the old offset.   For the new lines, it does regular  _expression_ matching.  [EMAIL PROTECTED] contrib]$ perl ./check_log2.pl -h check_log2.pl (nagios-plugins 1.4) 1.1 The nagios plugins come with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
