KDC logging question

[Jeremy Hunt]

Hi Mike,

This is not a kerberos answer but a suggestion for a quick fix until you 
do solve it. Make the log file a link to a file on another partition. 
This means you will not have
to lie awake at nights worrying about disk space on the root partition.

Regards,

Jeremy
