Just wanted to intro you all to this app, Metamonitor.

It's REALLY a kickass alternative to tools like tail, since this can notify in you in ways a terminal client can't easily replicate.

Bug report for maintainer is here.

Ebuild is linked in bug report, and also is at bottom of the Kde-apps.org website here.

I definately suggest checking it out.. :)

Metamonitor is very nice. :)

A bit offtopic: What is the best way to monitor the log of a remote machine?
