Oops, mis-typed, and if I only wanted it for one host? Or is the only option to have all machines of that platform send that data despite it only existing on one system? I was under the impression that both types of specification, hosts and platforms were available in client-local.cfg.

Well it should be client-local.cfg not client.local.cfg. and it isn’t a per machine definition, it’s a platform definition. You’d want something like:
[linux]
File:/mnt/fs/test

I am trying to monitor a file, this file is located at /mnt/fs/test, however, when I configure it in client-local.cfg and analysis.cfg I still get the "No Files Checked" message with a clear status. Is there something I'm missing here?
analysis.cfg:
HOST=hostname.domain.com
FILE /mnt/fs/test SIZE>1 COLOR=red
client.local.cfg:
HOST=hostname.domain.com
file:/mnt/fs/test
I have other entries, such as LOG configured under this host, and they work fine, but just this file test.
Any help is appreciated,
Jamison Maxwell
