Stream all log files into one file
Here is what I have.
1 main program and it calls several child programs. Each child has its own log file. I want all child logs also to be appended to the main.log so that I have a single log file. I also need individual child logfiles in tact for debug purposes. Need to be able to tail one log file instead of tens of child logs as they run..
I am free to modify either child or main program to accomplish this. How do it do this?

main.sh
log=main.log
echo "Entering main .log" >> $log
child1.sh

child1.sh
log=child.log
echo "this is child1" >> $log

nislog

nislog(1M)						  System Administration Commands						nislog(1M)

NAME

       nislog - display the contents of the NIS+ transaction log

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/nislog [-h num | -t num]  [-v] [directory...]

DESCRIPTION

       nislog  displays  the  contents of the NIS+ server transaction log on the standard output. This command can be used to track changes in the
       namespace. The /var/nis/trans.log file contains the transaction log maintained by the NIS+ server. When updates occur, they are	logged	to
       this  file  and	then  propagated  to replicas as log transactions.  When the log is checkpointed, updates that have been propagated to the
       replicas are removed.

       The nislog command can only be run on an NIS+ server by superuser. It displays the log entries for that server only.

       If directory is not specified, the entire log is searched. Otherwise, only those logs entries that correspond to the specified  directories
       are displayed.

OPTIONS

       -h num	       Display num transactions from the ``head'' of the log. If the numeric parameter is  0, only the log header is displayed.

       -t num	       Display	num transactions from the ``tail'' of the log. If the numeric parameter is  0, only the log header is displayed.

       -v	       Verbose mode.

FILES

       /var/nis/trans.log      transaction log
