Code: -------------------- tail -F /var/log/messages -------------------- is probably your best bet when logged in. It will give a rolling output. Ctrl C to stop. But I'm much less sure of my hypothesis, now, see EDIT to earlier post. I may have inadvertently mislead myself, and you might be wasting your time following up. Nevertheless having a bit of a buffer in hand might still be helpful. SCP should work if you get the command line right. I would do something like: Code: -------------------- scp root@myradio:/var/log/messages SBRmessages.txt -------------------- to get it into a local file named 'SBRmessages.txt'. It will/should prompt for a password. I don't know about WinSCP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113479 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
