checking for errors in messages file using Nagios

Using Nagios,

How can i get it to check for errors such as CPU/Memory/drive errors that get logged in /var/adm/messages on Solaris and Linux boxes?

Currently that is my only place of vulnerability for what we intend to use Nagios for, I need to be able to have Nagios alert me on errors that get logged in the /var/adm/messages file of possible system issues.


Thanks
David
