Anyone know what this wouldn't work? I have tried using a couple of
functions defined at http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php and
none
seem to have the desired effect.
<?php
$tailed = shell_exec('tail -f /path/to/log');
//$tailed = exec('tail -f /path/to/log');
//$tailed = system('tail -f /path/to/log');
print = "<textarea>$tailed</textarea>";
?>

Is PHP running in safe mode?
