project that you are considering sounds interesting. One suggestion: try
to develop it so that it can either stand on it's own or be added to
Nagios. More people would get use of it. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

had a web front end, then adding the colour-coded entries would be as simple as
adding a link to the Nagios site. Then all you would have to do is find a
way to get the syslog entries of interest into nagios. If it uses the
external command file, it could stand alone.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

functionality<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<P>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>Does Nagios currently have the ability to receive and associate syslogs
remotely received from servers that are being monitored within Nagios? I ask
because I am considering developing something for Nagios that could do this,
but I have not been using Nagios for long enough to know if this capability is
already there.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It would be nice to be able to look at syslog entries received from a
remote server when looking at a particular server detail within Nagios. And to
have it color-coded would be cool as well.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Is there any of this functionality currently?</DIV>
