view ttyv1 with ssh

[killwin]

Hello,

At home, programs write logs to the screen on ttyv1. But i'm not at home and i want to view the ttyv1 screen.

I'm connected with ssh on my computer.

How to pipe ttyv1 to a file like /dev/ttyv1 > /home/totoro/log ?

Thanks

Maybe /var/log/messages will give you the same information?

To view whats happening on ttyv1:

watch /dev/ttyv1

Only new messages are visible
