tail -n1 -f --retry /home/dirTalk/current_dir/oamlog/ASAI.log | while read output_line
or
tail -n1 -F /home/dirTalk/current_dir/oamlog/ASAI.log | while read output_line

The following commands are recognized:
list list scripts on server.
put <filename> upload script to server.
get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout
delete <name> delete script.
activate <name> activate script.
deactivate deactivate all scripts.
OPTIONS
-u user, --user=user
The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials.
-a authname, --authname=authname
The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user).
-r realm, --realm=realm
The realm to attempt authentication in.
-e script, --exec=script
Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
