You're quite correct - there doesn't seem to be any documentation
for this (other than the definitions in the MIB file). If you were
able to offer something suitable, that would be extremely useful.
The code to implement this is in the file 'agent/mibgroup/ucd-snmp/logmatch.c',
and there appears to be an snmpd.conf directive:
logmatch {name} {path} {cycletime} {regex}
My guess is that:
name = an identifying token (probably arbitrary)
path = the full filename of the logfile
cycletime = how frequently to check the file for
potentially matching entries
regex = the pattern to monitor the log for
But you'd probably have to do some experimentation to determine exactly
how this works in practise.
If you do manage to come up with something suitable, please do let us
have a copy so that we can update the documentation.
