Hi,

The way I would do is to just append these logs to any file that ossec
is already
monitoring. Say OSSEC is looking at /var/log/messages, I would just:

# cat /var/log/http/yourhttplog >> /var/log/messages


That would allow OSSEC to monitor all the entries (old ones). For it to monitor
the new ones, just add an entry for it at /var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf:

  <localfile>
    <log_format>apache</log_format>
    <location>/var/log/apache/apache.log</location>
  </localfile>


Hope it helps.
