[nmglug] log auto refresh

[a_kaluta]

Interesting phenomena going on i.e. ~/data1.txt
or /var/log/temperature/temp.log,error message:either permission denied
or cannot locate the file.  Tried permutations of chmod and chown, also
either >  or | ~/data2.txt, results nada! permission denied sudo or
user.

these work:
watch -n.1 'cat /proc/interrupts' 
watch -n 5 'digitemp_DS9097U -a'

these do not:
watch -n 5 'digitemp_DS9097U -a' >> ~/data2.txt
watch -n 5 'digitemp_DS9097U -a  >> ~/data2.txt'
/var/log/temperature/temp.log >> ~/data2.txt
/var/log/temperature/temp.log  | ~/data2.txt

crontab entry:
* * * * *  /usr/bin/digitemp_DS9097U -a -o3
-l /var/log/temperature/temp.log -c /home/a/.digitemprc 

                             Any insights? tnx,Anthony
