Thanks for your help,

I will wait for dome data to turn up now.
The other thing though is I have         DIR /home TRACK
In the hobbit-clients.cfg but no DIR are showing up in xymon under
filesystems or files?
Is there again something I have not done?

Thanks

Hi All,

I a bit of a newbie to hobbit / xymon so please forgive me.

I have been trying to get my hobbit server to monitor a file called
/home/xymon/test.txt, so I can log the growth on it, should I append
TRACK to it?

I have modified client-local.cfg and added
[linux]
log:/var/log/messages:10240
file:/home/xymon/test.txt

I have no data in hobbit to show for this what am I doing wrong?

Thanks
In hobbit-clients.cfg on the server you need to add a FILE entry.  See the
commentary at the beginning of the file for details.
