Hello Jim Uh, I'm afraid the problem isn't solved yet.
First of all , my explanation wasn't enough. The sequence of the syslog checking was the following: 1. Scan through the syslog file (Active Check) 2. If any error exist, transfer to passive service in Nagios (Passive Check) So I have defined 2 services in Nagios , 1 Active service check and 1 Passive service check. However the problem was above 1 wasn't executed from Nagios.
