Not me, but we can give general advice on how to deal with it when asked more specific questions. Does/can it log to syslog, or would you have to feed files into syslog-ng? The new syslog-ng branch supports the equivalent of 'tail -f' on a file and putting it into syslog, if that helps. -- Nate "PROGRAM - n.

I'm reading them using strings, less and vi :). Which WS logs do you mean, specifically? The activity log or the application logs or ...? Also, you'll face the problem everyone has when trying to log J2EE application log data, which is the multi-line paradigm issue. syslog is good for short single line log data transfer, however can cause a lot of grief when used with multi-line log data, like for example JVM exceptions. Which are your requirements to the log files and what exactly are you trying to build? WS logs can also be viewed through the WS web console.
