Morning all,
    Is there a way to monitor for certain key words that show up in the
system logs? ie. I would like for hobbit to page me "iff" the words
"FAILOVER", "LOOP DEAD", and "LOOP DOWN" are detected in the
/var/logs/messages file on our Linux machines.

Let me know if this is possible.

Thanks,
Tom Callahan
