I didn't make my last request very clear. I used lastlog as an example, but what I really want to do is open a syslog file (text file), that is coming in from a VPN box. I'd like to have it displayed live so I can scan it during the day. What is the best way to do this? Someone had suggested using cron, but I'm very new to Linux and PHP so I would need some help with that. Any help is appreciated, Carlton.
