How do I monitor a specific log message?

[Estevao Soares]

No, That didn't occur to me till now.

Ok, Lets suppose I mount my path on samba and cat the result with cat and
grep. How do I put this onto nagios?

And there is a problem here... This should return and OK or NOT OK for
example. I'm still clueless about how to do that.

Thanks for you info anyway.
