I managed to fix this myself last night (although I'm a bit of a newbie, so
if I did something stupid, please let me know y'all. :) )

I added just Active_Monitor_69 to the last line of  my
Logcheck.violations.ignore file and it stopped reporting it. (I did also add
it to the Logcheck.ignore file before, btw...but that didn't work. It seems
that it has to be in the Logcheck.violations.ignore file to work.)

The instructions say to be very careful with Wildcards, so I didn't use any.
:) I have a feeling adding very specific, short identifiers to
logcheck.violations.ignore for the warnings you want to strip out will
work...but, as the instructions say, be really careful with this so that you
don't block out messages that you really should see.

I hope this helps!
