[Xymon] Log/file monitoring based on occurrence?

That's what I figured, after having looked at the analysis.cfg man page multiple times.

If I want to do this, then, I'm going to have to script something to analyze X amount of time and do something if it sees occurrences>=Y and then feed that to Xymon somehow.

Thanks. You might be able to use something like fail2ban, and configure it to simply add some text to a logfile instead of adding a iptables entry.... Then let xymon monitor this fail2ban logfile....

Possibly overkill, but just thought I'd mention it... better to re-use something that already exists...
