Hello. Inspired by "console-log", I've set up a simple script that monitors a log from my local server (in another room :) ) that's mounted over nfs. It gets started from init. The problem is that when switching to the specified console, I see only "Permission denied" messages. So the first time I experienced it, I checked the permissions with "ls -l" on that directory and everything seemed to be fine. The interesting thing, however, was that it made the log appear correctly as soon as I issued "ls" or "df", kind of like touching the mounted filesystem or something similar. Putting "df" into the script makes no difference, and "console-log" just returns nothing until I log in and issue "ls" by myself. After that, both facilities work the same.
If it's important, my script basically does this: openvt -f -c${tty_num} -- run --restart --robust less +F $log Is there a way to get rid of those messages instantly?
