You are able to do this in central mode:

Below you can find a working example;


Entry ~/server/etc/client-local.cfg
[servername]
log:C:/temp/test.log:30720

Entry ~/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg
        LOG     C:/temp/test.log %red.stuf COLOR=red


Result can be found in the msgs service of that host:

  Critical entries in C:/temp/test.log
  red.stuf

Subject: [Xymon] [xymon] log parsing on windows

Hi all,

Is it possible to monitor log files (not event viewer) under windows
machines?
For example *.log files containing particular patterns (error
strings...) I'm trying Bbwin client but using central mode I'm only
capable to parse event log.

Maybe someone has an external that affords this feature...

thanks in advance!
