Hi,

I am new to rsyslog but have found it very capable. I am using it via logger
to log output of some of my scripts to local5. However I do want rsyslog to
alert me via an alert script should it encounter a warning or error message
sent to the log.

I have tested my alert script and that works ok, i give it two arguments
subject and message. However I can not seem to work out how to make this
work from rsyslog.

I tried the following:

$template Alert,"'Rsyslog Alert' :msg"
local5.info
:msg, content "warning"
^/usr/bin/alert_script Alert


Ideally i want the Subject to be what i set it to, the message to be
everything that comes after the word warning. I would also only like one
alert every 24 hours.

Any ideas or help would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Mark
