I keep terminal windows like this open 24x7. Another alternative to the -f option of the tail command (to compensate for when logrotate kicks in), is to use the --follow option. tail --follow=name /var/log/messages Now when logrotate moves the messages file to messages.1 and restarts syslogd, tail will automatically follow (re-open) the new messages file and continue output.
