Good morning, (for me at least).
Here is my format problem:
format = STATOUTATOUT
@<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<@<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
$STDESC, $STVAL
.

Undefined format "STDOUT" called at ./getlogs.pl line 88, line 2.
But if I use
format = (default STDOUT), everything works out fine.
On the second subject, yes Im working on a older perl release and Ill have to convice the Sys admins on upgrading perl on the prodution machines, meanwhile Ill just hold on to the tail command.
Thanks in advance.
