in thread Man, File::Tail is just beating me down!

Excellent suggestions. If I use the reset_tail function and I am keeping track of the line number(s) that are being read, is there a way I can make it jump straight to a specific line in case of a restart?

    Not currently, no.
      As a follow up, since I made adjustments and increased those two values (30,60) the restarts have stopped to once a day. Oddly enough, they always happen at the 3rd minute. When I say that, it's 12:03, 09:33, 15:23, etc..Probably just a coincidence, there is no cron job, or anything like that. But I will continue to monitor.
