Uniquely Identifiable Events in Nagios.log?

Hi all,

I was wondering if it is possible to configure Nagios to produce
uniquely identifiable entries in the nagios/var/nagios.log file?

The reason I ask, is that I would like to parse this log file for
service check results and perform further processing based on the
values discovered there. The trouble is, that as far as I can see,
Nagios uses a time-stamp which is only accurate to the second, and so
my log files have lines which all have the same time-stamp. Is there a
way to increase the accuracy of this time-stamp perhaps? Or any other
suitable solution to the general problem of identifying log entries?

Cheers,
Chris
