And yet I cannot get the status of MSGS to go to Red for the client when I put 'error' into /var/log/messages
This was a problem to me during several months and finally, someone helped me out on the mailing list. You have to create a file in the Hobbit tmp/ directory :
cat ..../hobbit-monitor/client/tmp/logfetch.<HOSTNAME>.cfg
log:/var/log/messages:10240 log:/var/log/mail.log:10240 log:/var/log/auth.log:10240
<HOSTNAME> is the hostname of your machine (I used to do : touch
tmp/logfetch.hostname.cfg). Once this file is created and filed in, you
will see the light ;)
