syslog monitoring

   There is a file in the nagiosplug contrib called check_log2.pl.  It
   makes a temporary file with the byte offset from the last check so it
   starts the new check at the old offset.   For the new lines, it does
   regular  expression matching.
    [hmann at sirius contrib]$ perl ./check_log2.pl -h
   check_log2.pl (nagios-plugins 1.4) 1.1

   Scan arbitrary log files for regular expression matches.
   Usage: check_log2.pl -l <log_file> -s <log_seek_file> -p <pattern> [-n
   <negpattern>]
   Usage: check_log2.pl [ -v | --version ]
   Usage: check_log2.pl [ -h | --help ]
   -l, --logfile=<logfile>
       The log file to be scanned
   -s, --seekfile=<seekfile>
       The temporary file to store the seek position of the last scan
   -p, --pattern=<pattern>
       The regular expression to scan for in the log file
   -n, --negpattern=<negpattern>
       The regular expression to skip in the log file
   Cheers,

     Hi All,
     Does anyone here know if there's a plug in to nagios that will
     allow monitoring of
     syslogs and or integrates monitoring done via scripts?  I'd like to
     integrate my monitoring.
