[Xymon] monitoring contents of a logfile with a daily changing filename

Hi Ian,

My suggestion (not tested): -On your client, edit ~xymon/client/etc/client-local.cfg file -In your host definition, add a this line: log:/var/log/external/$REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_NAME/messages-$(date +%Y%m%d).log -If previous does not work, this one should do the job log:$(find /var/log/external/$REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_NAME/ -name messages-$(date +%Y%m%d).log)

Regards, Damien Martins
