Server Console Messages for LDAP
Records all LDAP Services for eDirectory errors that appear on the server console.
Note: Logging uses processing resources. For optimum performance, turn off logging.
File

filename is entered, logging is not enabled and log events are not recorded. Only the

When the log file reaches the maximum size, it is renamed to the name specified in the
Backup File parameter. All new log data continues to be stored in a new log file that uses
the name specified by the File parameter.
