But I need to parse the log in realtime and what's easier than logging to a script which can select the useful entries and react accordingly? A script can receive input continuesly but it's hard to read only new entries of a logfile, especially when it's truncated or renamed after a certain size. The workaround would be to log everything to stderr so I could start named with named 2>&1 | /var/tmp/logger.pl But I don't know where BIND prints the stderr-output, obviously not to stderr.
