I'd like to tail a file that's sitting on another server, but simply typing:
tail address.of.server:/file/to/tail >> output doesn't seem to be doing the trick: tail: cannot open "address.of.server:/file/to/tail" for reading: No such file or directory I'm fairly new to bash and linux in general, so how should I form this? I know how to access this file normally, and I CAN do this by just logging onto the server and then typing: tail /file/to/tail >> output but I, for whatever reason, want to consolidate everything to one statement, if possible. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/tailing-a-file-on-another-server-using-ssh-and...-tp17983026p17983026.html Sent from the Gnu - Bash mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
