Thanks. > Please direct further sofware usage questions to the most appropriate mai= ling lists
Sorry to keep bugging, but I believe this *is* the most appropriate mailing list. Having to create a different user just so that I can log to a different files doesn't seem like an optimal solution. Clearly, this is a lack of necessary feature for slapd where user can not override the location of the log file. Also, I've re-read the documentation many times but it seems to suggest that I am supposed to be able to forward the content of the log (sent to syslog) to a separate file. Perhaps the documentation needs to be updated?
