I have setup in a Windows Server 2008 a syslog server using NXLog http://nxlog-ce.sourceforge.net/. I've configured some routers in the network to send syslog messages (RFC 5426) to the server (UDP 514) and it's working great, saving all the messages in C:\Syslog\devices.log.

In Linux servers I can monitor the syslog log file using the command tail -f /var/foo/bar/syslog so I could see incoming events. What would the equivalent in Windows Server that support displaying the incoming messages? I just don't want to reload the file in any file editor, wait to open the whole log (when I just care about the tail), and scroll to the bottom, that's it.

This question really has nothing at all to do with syslog.

This has already been covered here: Convenient Windows equivalent to tail -f logfile?
