Sorry for the mispost.
Of course I meant to send it to nagios-users.

Hi,

after some major configuration changes I sent nagios a sighup.

To check if it got caught I had a look at nagios.log.

Then I realized that it is rather inconvenient to always having
to do some conversion like such
to find out when messages got written.

[nagios at daisy:~/etc]
$ perl -anle 'print scalar localtime(($F[0]=~/(\d+)/)[0]) if eof'
/var/opt/nagios/log/nagios.log 
Mon Jul 25 14:53:37 2005


I'm sure one can select a custom (or common logfile format)
similar to Apache.
Can one?
