Howdy Mr Grabnar, I am using the following to try and read the file but I get no output. I installed the module and get no warnings about it, but I can't seem to get any output. And the log file does exist. Here's the code I am using: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use File::Tail;
my $LogFile="/usr/local/apache2/eventmgr/ncomount/page.log";
my $file=File::Tail->new("$LogFile");

  while (defined($line=$file->read)) {
      print "$line";
  }
