The group membership has always been the same. I've never changed it, and the group membership and ownership of the logfiles, both working and non-working are the same.
How does Hobbit look at log files? A standard Cat, Grep, Tail?
Can anyone give me a way to debug this?
Thanks.....James

I can login to the box as the hobbit user and cat the files out
just fine. The privileges all match up with the other logfiles that are
working just fine. Manually, I can see the files just fine.
But, if you changed the hobbit user's group memberships since you last restarted the hobbit client, you would receive the new group when logging in, but the client would still be running without that group.
So, try restarting the client.
