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

Subject: [Xymon] File Monitoring

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
