Yes, I did.

I've suspended monitoring the log files with problems
for now. I'll try again later in the week. I had to
work out another monitoring problem late last night.
I'll send a email on the problem because I need assistance.

Thanks....James

I've never changed it, and the group membership and ownership
of the logfiles, both working and non-working are the same.

How does Hobbit look at log files? A standard Cat, Grep, Tail?
It uses Hobbit's "logfetch" utility, which basically opens the file for
reading.
Can anyone give me a way to debug this?
Have you checked for errors in the client logs ? ~hobbit/client/logs/ on
the client system.
