I guess I should explain further.

Logmuncher handles the directory hierarchy quite well, see my
syslog presentation with sample configs here:

http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/AISTWiki/bin/view/AIS/Presentations

Also another neat feature is that Logmuncher will only grab log files
to search that were modified in the last 24 hours. That way as your
directory trees grow, the log files that are processed stay minimal.

Logmuncher is at:
