If you're using a linux based system, you may have some luck setting up syslogger to forward logging packets to the remote ip address, and running the twisted daemon on the other box, and sending notifications if the heartbeat from the monitored machine stops.
I was working on a project recently to set up a monitor a RFID based access control system for building, that runs on twisted/openwrt/linux, we used an approach like this. The link below shows a sample twisted python file that runs on a monitoring machine. http://github.com/derfred/doord/blob/cd300a1cde930c07cd13d98be3e45cb89df79809/log_watcher.py _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
