Introduction
Log File Viewer is a graphical, menu-driven viewer that you can
use to view and monitor your system logs. Log File Viewer comes
with a few functions that can help you manage your logs, including a log
monitor and log statistics display.
Log File Viewer is useful if you are new to system
administration because it provides an easier, more user-friendly display of
your logs than a text display of the log file. It is also useful for more
experienced administrators, as it contains a monitor to enable you to
continuously monitor crucial logs.
Log File Viewer is useful only to those who have access to the
system log files, which generally requires root access.
