Tool or solution to monitor a log file and forward each line as it appears

Hey there,

I am trying to find a tool that can monitor a logfile, and as new lines are entered, append that line to another file.

The reason I ask is that the logfile is automatically rotated (i.e., deleted) periodically, and I want a master log file with all log file entries.

Thanks!

Spitting out of a game server. But format of logfile shouldn't matter, as the lines dont need processing. Each line should be simply appended to the master log.
