KSH Script to watch log files for 2 strings

Hi all,

How can I do a ksh script to watch a log file for 2 specific alarms that have one this string : "Connection Error" and the other one: "Failure in sending". I would like to watch for these two alarms in the log and then if each of them repeats for about 30 times to go kill 2 processes.

Thanks,

#include <sys/inotify.h> int inotify_rm_watch(int fd, int wd); DESCRIPTION

EBADF fd is not a valid file descriptor. EINVAL The watch descriptor wd is not valid; or fd is not an inotify file descriptor. VERSIONS
