Hello, I'll try not to span this time.

I just installed '4.3.21' server on a Raspberry Pi Debian. Additionally, I just compiled '4.3.21' as a client on a Raspberry Pi Debian.

Xymon is going to be used to monitor one server, a network intrusion software called snort. I'm going to monitor one log file which has all the detected alerts. If an alert comes in, I want Xymon to be red.

So, I went to the xymon server and modified the 'client-local.cfg': [snort] log:/var/log/snort/alert:4096

'snort' is the name of the sniffer server and I only want to monitor '/var/log/snort/alert' file.

Then I went to the 'analysis.cfg' on the xymon server and added:

HOST=snort LOG /var/log/snort/alert ERROR COLOR=red

I waited 20 minutes and I'm getting:

No log data available The client did not report any logfile data

I do see green happy faces on conn, disk, info, memory but 'msgs' is white.

I had this working on a very old version of 'xymon' a while ago but this is the first time I'm using the latest and greatest. Please help. usaims
