I am reading a log file which is being used by the Server every second to
log data. I am writing a windows service to read this file.

So far, i have been doing this:

Copying the file to a tmp.txt file in the same directory and processing the
file. Later, I realised that when i try to process a file residing on a
linux machine ... linux wouldn't allow me to do that.

So I thought I should open the file in a read me mode and process the
data...

are there any other possible approach to this problem?

Please Advice. Thanks in advance.

How do you access the Lin*x machine?

I am still not sure... What do you mean by "Linux won't allow that"?
