Using GNU screen might be a good option here; you could tailor the .screenrc file to monitor the 2 logfiles in a split console, re-attachable of course...
unless you really want the output glommed together.  Alternatively, you could use syslog and even fwd the output across the network to another system,
which could be a worm storage device if the logs potentially hold forensic data.

BSD tail cannot do this.

GNU tail's output might be a little confusing.  Probably a prefix on the
line would be easier to follow, but it does work.
