Environment

NetIQ eDirectory 8.8.7.3

Situation

n4u.server.log-file creates a ndsd.log regardless of the log file name
specified

Change the log name and location for the  n4u.server.log-file
ndsconfig get n4u.server.log-file=/var/log/myeDir.log

When ndsd is restarted it will put stop and start info into the myeDir.log
Example:
Jul 25 11:21:32 About to stop Novell eDirectory server on host:  eDir
Jul 25 11:21:32 Stopped Novell eDirectory server on host:  eDir .
Jul 25 11:21:32 About to start Novell eDirectory server on host: eDir.
[ -- DHost Logging STARTED Thu Jul 25 11:22:14 2013 -- ]
Jul 25 11:21:32 Started Novell eDirectory server on host: eDir


But then after the Started Novell eDirectory server on host, it will create a
ndsd.log in the specified directory.  Example: /var/log/ndsd.log
