[LUAU] watchdog to make sure a log file is growing

[Matt Darnell]

Aloha,

Does anyone know of a daemon or script that can be run to make sure
that a log file is growing?

This log file grows to over 300MB in 24 hours & growth is guaranteed
second to second.

I would like to now when the file does not grow for a five second
period.  Sending out emails when it occurs would be best.

I found lots of links for log watchers - like here
http://www.linuxlinks.com/Software/Monitoring/Logs/ - but none seem to
just make sure the log is growing.

It is a Debian box.

Thanks!

Aloha,
Matt
