Hi,

I just created a script that will watch the syslogs and complain if a
backup client does not call in within a predetermined time.

Actually, it will look for any patterned dropouts in any given syslog
file, but the above is it's primary purpose for me right now.

I just finished it tonight, so I will want to make sure it works properly,
but if anyone wants a copy, they are welcome to it.

I wrote it in Perl.

Have Fun
Rick
