Hi,

don't you need localclient.cfg on the server (who is a client, too) as
well?

I also added this on the localclient.cfg file from the server :
     $ cat localclient.cfg
        ...
        HOST=Suspendisse
        LOG /var/log/messages MARK COLOR=RED
        ...
     $

But I don't have any logs coming up in the Hobbit web interface : The
client did not report any logfile data
Where could be the problem? Anyone here check its log files without any
problem?

Hello,

  I've posted a couple of month but after hours & hours of tests, I
still
can't check logs with Hobbit. I'm running a Hobbit server on Linux
Ubuntu
and a Hobbit client with 'client side configuration' on Ubuntu or RHEL.

On my client computer called "Suspendisse" : 
    $ cat localclient.cfg
       ...
       # LOG
       LOG /var/log/messages MARK COLOR=RED
       ...
    $

For this example, I will go get a red alert when a "MARK" 
Then, on my Hobbit server called "Fusce" :
    $ cat hobbit-clients.cfg
       ...
       HOST=Suspendisse
       LOG /var/log/messages MARK COLOR=RED
       ...
    $

  That's what I've read on the Hobbit man page but it doesn't work. The
log doesn't appear 
on my Hobbit web pages. What I'm doing wrong ?
