Hi there, thanks for your answer.
I do have a complete version of my question that I setuped using the File::Tail examples, but I was trying to avoid it because for that I need to compile an executable with PAR wich makes a huge bin file (I dont have permission to setup the File::Tail module on the destination server)... oh well!..
Wont the incomplete line be caugth on the next cycle? Need to do a bit to bit count?!
So if I need to get stuck with the code bellow how can I do and "uniq" ou the fectched regex values on "$_->read;"

Best Regards,
NMA

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use File::Tail;

my $ConfFile="watchtelecom.conf";
my @LogFiles;
my @Files;
my $nfound;
my $timeleft;
my @pending;
my $timeout;
my $ErrorPatern="error"; #testing purpuses.
#my $ErrorPatern="Input: Error reading in input stream";
my $test;
my $x;

open(CONFFILE, "$ConfFile") or die("Could not open $ConfFile.");
foreach (<CONFFILE>) {
  push(@LogFiles,$_);
}
close(CONFFILE) or die("Could not close $ConfFile.");


foreach (@LogFiles) {
    push(@Files,File::Tail->new(name=>"$_", maxinterval=>1800));
}

while (1) {

  ($nfound,$timeleft,@pending)=
            File::Tail::select(undef,undef,undef,$timeout,@Files);
   foreach (@pending) {
     my $telcoline=$_->read;
     if ($telcoline =~ /$ErrorPatern/) {
       #print $_->{"input"}." (".localtime(time).") ".$_->read;
       if ($_->{"input"} =~ /TMN/) {
       print "Via Vodafone: $telcoline";
       $test=$telcoline;
       } else {
       print "Via TMN: $telcoline";
       $test=$telcoline;
       }
     }
   }
}
