Hi,

I'm having trouble setting up my agent's configuration file to monitor a log file. Say, for example, I'd like to monitor a file named /home/foo/foo.log

Can anybody tell me what the .conf file entry would look like?

How about when I configure the item? I'm assuming I set the "Type of information" entry to "Log". How should I be using the "Log time format" and what should that look like? What would the key look like for the example above?

Thanks!
