How about: alias tm="sudo tail -f /var/log/messages" in your bashrc? > is there a security error here somewhere ? Well, for one, putting something in /usr/bin ought to trigger tripwire type alarms (maybe not needed on a home machine). You could have kept your script in $HOME/bin and added this line to sudoers: spavri ALL=/home/spavri/bin/tm Essentially, keep your personal files in one place (/home/spavri) - this will help in reinstalling the OS in future. > is this all unnecessary ? Depends. I'd say this is all the fun part of Linux :) Binand ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
