Hello guys,

  Got the same problem here. I've followed the documentation just like
Naudit007 but nothing happens. Someone could point us to a documentation or
however to fix this issue please ?

Hello guys

I begin to be crazy to monitor log file on client !

*On server I have put in "client-local.cfg" that : *

[server1]
log:/var/log/messages:10240

*On client I have put in localclient.cfg that : *

DEFAULT
        # Uptime mini
        UP      1h
----------------truncated----------------------------------
        # LOG
         LOG %/var/log/messages %(I/O|read).error COLOR=red
         LOG /var/log/messages COLOR=red
         LOG /var/log/messages FAILBACK COLOR=yellow
         LOG /var/log/messages "VCS ERROR" COLOR=red
        # Ports
        PORT LOCAL=%(:8888|:8889) color="red"


        # Ports
        PORT LOCAL=%(:8888|:8889) color="red"


The privilege work well for user hobbit :

ll /var/log/messages
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 210719 Jun 18 15:21 /var/log/messages

# getent group adm
adm:x:4:root,hobbit,adm,daemon

I was try a lot of possibility on several host, and all my columns "msg"
is
always grey and says :
