In the server every time a new socket connection is made you are creating a new Tail instance and then using io.sockets.emit() which sends a message to all connected clients, hence the behavior you are seeing. If you really just want to globally tail and emit events move that handle outside of the connection handler. If each connection is going to specify which file it wants to tail then you'll want to just emit on that connection not all connections or if you expect multiple clients to want to all tail the same file look into socket.io's room feature to only create each tail handler once. Lastly as written I don't see that the tail instances are being stopped and cleaned up when the client disconnects.
