Tail file on remote machine

[Michael Bildner]

Hi, I am attempting to use the MindTerm Java APIs to
connect to a remote server (via SSH) and tail a log
file. The ideal solution is to have a GUI where I can
click a button to start the tail, a button to stop the
tail, and a text area where the data is displayed
while the tail is running.

So the question is how do I accomplish the following
tasks:
1. Connect to the remote machine
2. Run the command "tail -f 'somelogfile'" and have
the output returned to the local machine
3. Stop the command and disconnect from the remote
machine

Code samples would be very helpful :)

Thanks.
