Options are plenteous, there is also this:

[monitor://E:\Ora\DRM\...\log.txt]

Monitor the directory E:\Ora\DRM and it will index everything below that.

(NOTE: You can use wildcards, but that doesn't mean you should use wildcards. )

Wildcards are allowed in file paths. Try

[monitor://E:\Ora\DRM\*\log.txt]

I have [monitor://E:\Ora\DRM**.txt] but did not work

Daily date directory created for every day and there are 20 logs under the date directory

[monitor://E:\Ora\DRM\*\*\log.txt]
