Title: Message
I've installed the cygwin tools on all my windows boxes. Cygwin is a port to windows of common Unix tools . The great thing about this is I ssh into a command prompt on my windows box and use the excellent tools supplied to check logs
 
Examples of some of the tools
 
tail -n 100 post.log - show the last 100 lines of the log
grep "Connect to" POST20020520.log  - see all the server iMS connected to
 
This are VERY simple examples, you can also string several command together
 
e.g. : grep "Connect to" POST20020520.log  | uniq | sort - see all the unique server iMS connected to in alphabetical order .
 
You can also create scripts which combine several things together
 
There is a learn curve, but it's worth it. Grab a copy of "Linux In a Nutshell " for all the tools.

Subject: [iMS] large log files

What do you guys use to read large log files?
For example, one of my POST log files is about 45MB's
and Notepad crashes when it tries to open it. Just curious..
