I have a script I would like to write but I am not sure of where to start / approach. Perhaps someone could help direct me in the right direction. Any advice is appreciated.
I would like to write a python script that monitors two log files. If a certain string, lets say string1 shows up in logfile-A, I want to check if that same string shows up in log file-B within 8 minutes. If it does not show up within 8 minutes, send an email ( using sendmail or postfix). Do you have any suggestions? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
