Re: [cobalt-users] Stopping tail -f



 I sometimes use tail -f to monitor the maillog or httpd/access log. I'm not
 sure of the "right" way to stop this though. I have been hitting Ctrl-Z, but
 the tail process is still running so I have to run top then kill the process
 ID. Can someone tell me how to stop this the correct way (if there is one)?
 I tried man tail and info tail but came up empty.
