This looks great.

I've been using klogg and if you're more into GUI's then I think it's the best there is. It opens and searches in log files of many gigabytes with easy. It's a simple and clean multiplatform QT app.

The problem with GUIs is that AFAIK they need to be installed on the machine the logs you are reading are on so a heavy install on a server.

Qt still runs over X11. You can just have the app and support libs for remote display without a full desktop environment.
