That was another approach that we are considering. As is just writing an SNMP
script for Nagios and going that route.
In all honesty, this has turned more into a case of a "can I do it", rather
than "should I do it". It has me hooked, I really just want to know if it's
possible now more than anything and see it work. :P

Wouldn't it be easier to have the logs sent to a syslog server, then
monitor the one log?
