output of var/log/messages on the terminal

2011-12-10 Thread Andrew Z
gys, how can i send the /var/log/messages on a designated terminal? i remember some many years ago i saw on of SAs having messages file to 11 or 10 terminal from the moment machine booted. The gain - they just switch to it instead of typing "tail ". Hope makes sence and thank you in advance
