on 2/4/2008 1:56 PM Scott McClanahan spake the following:
In centos 4 we used tail in the following way:

tail +83 file

That would tail the contents of the file starting at line 83.  In centos
5 that same command complains about the file +83 not being found.  It
appears that the + option in tail doesn't work the same way in centos 5.
Is there another easy way to grab the contents of a file starting at a
certain line number and beyond.
I think it would be tail -n +83 file
