These files are located in the
directory. For example, the following is the default directory for the CiscoSecure
authentication service:
c:\Program Files\CiscoSecure ACS v2.6\CSAuth\Logs
The most recent debug log is named as follows:
SERVICE
.log
where SERVICE is the name of the applicable service.
Older debug logs are named with the year, month, and date they were created. For
example, a file created on July 13, 1999, would be named as follows:
SERVICE
1999-07-13.log
where SERVICE is the name of the applicable service.
If you selected the Day/Month/Year format, the file would be named as follows:
SERVICE
13-07-1999.log
