Log monitors

We are running an application here, UNIKiX actually, that every month or so gives us fits with mysterious failures. The problems are typically logged in its runtime log, but we don't pay close enough attention to it. So, I'm imagining a log monitor facility that will watch the log for us and report anything that isn't normal. This sort of implies that you need to tell it what is normal so that it can report what isn't normal. It should basically learn by asking if a message is ok or not and keeping track of it so that next time it wont report it.

It seems to me I can write something like this in a few days, but before I jumped into it, I wanted to see if others know of an existing product or something similar.

Thanks
