If all you really want to do is filter log files on the fly, SIMS will
display any text file you put in the Logs folder. You'd only need one copy
of SIMS running. Just rename each log file so that they don't conflict with
each other. I'd suggest that if you have 2 servers, name one A and one B.
Then name A's log files A-2001-06-14 and B's log files B-2001-06-14. That
way each server's logs are all grouped together. Then copy them all to the
Powerbook's Logs folder.
Hope that was clear enough. Good luck with your case!
