Hi,
I'm testing Xymon 4.3.27 to update from 4.3.18 for security issue, and find that one line in /var/log/message is dropped shown as"msgs". (Dropped line is seemed to be replaced with a string "<...CURRENT...>")
--- how to reproduce this problem ---
Write two messages from command prompt:
$ logger test line 1 test line 2 ^D (EOF)
/var/log/messages contains:
Jun 14 13:33:10 myhost some previous messages... Jun 14 18:40:56 myhost root: test line 1 Jun 14 18:40:58 myhost root: test line 2
Xymon 4.3.27 shows following messages as "msgs":
<...CURRENT...> Jun 14 18:40:58 smdtest root: test line 2
I can set Xymon to ignore "<...CURRENT...>" using "analysis.cfg", but lost message line will not come back until another line is added to /var/log/messages.
Attached patch for client/logfetch.c works fine for me. Please consider to apply it.
