I just came across a great little utility for Windows that gives you some of the functionality native Linux/UNIX tool 'tail' which lets you watch live entries into a log. The product is called Tail Ace by Walltech Software. This really beats combing through a text file in WordPad trying to look for instant updates to the log.
I came across it while actively making adjustments to my router and mail server to ensure that reverse DNS lookups were being done and I could instantly see the changes in the mail server logs by using Tail Ace.
