Should work....alternative method is to remeber where you got to in the file (line count) and then run your script at intervals starting where you left off - just be careful handling logrotates

If I tail -f the log and parse it through the script when a new line is added to the log the script exits.
I haven't tried the alternative step yet as I am not familiar with logrotates.
Would there be any other way to do this?
Thanks.
