Hi,
I am trying to found a plugin which permit to check in a file if a got a right string (it's a summary of antivirus scan).
I see some plugin ( like it :

If someone know a good plugin don't hesitate to tell me
Kind regards,
Nox

Is this plugin meant to be executed on a Windows machine or a Linux machine?
For Linux I recommend check_log3:

For Windows I recommend check_logfiles, though it's a bit of a pain to build from scratch:

Hi,
I come back to you cause i have some issues :
On the plugin i don't saw where i can say that the string : "Infected files: 0" is okey and other number (>0) is critical.
And i'am totaly lost with this plugin : i don't know how to use it and install it ...
Do you know how to proceed ?

From their page
--warning=<Number>. Complex handler-scripts can be provided with a warning-parameter (of course –critical is possible, too) this way. Inside the scripts the value is accessible as the macro CL_WARNING (resp. CL_CRITICAL).

You can but you would need to install an agent such as NSClient++

However if you are just counting the files and installing the agent you may wish to configure the commands like described on this page:

You will need to enable the NRPE listener as described in this doc
