Au fait, as tu fait "man tail" ? Tu aurais pu lire :
With --follow (-f), tail defaults to following the file
descriptor, which means that even if a tail'ed file is
renamed, tail will continue to track its end. This
default behavior is not desirable when you really want to
track the actual name of the file, not the file descriptor
(e.g., log rotation). Use --follow=name in that case.
That causes tail to track the named file by reopening it
periodically to see if it has been removed and recreated
by some other program.
