Re: {bb} empty /var/adm/messages

Hi,

 

    Let me eat back my words. I meant what should I do to amend my bb-msgs.sh.

I was thinking of changing this line

 

-> elif test "$CHKMSGLEN" ="TRUE" && test ! -s "$file"

 

and replace -s with -r. Would that stop bb from taking an empty messages file as a red critical event?

 

 

 

regards, Josh
