I'm not near a doze box rite now, so I can't verify, but you can
probably do something like:

putty $hostname tail /var/log/messages 
(well I know that atleast putty $hostname works) if this is the case
you could probably just make an icon that does it all for you (just
double click the icon and get putty tailing /var/log/messages without
further effort)
