Logging NFS Server Events on Windows 95

With NFS Server logging enabled, any interaction between the NFS clients and server is written in the NFS log file c:\LOGGING.TXT.

To start NFS Server logging, you must enable both NFS Server logging and Network Event logging.

To Enable NFS Server Logging

If logging of NFS Server events has not been enabled in the Network control panel, you can start the logging manually.

1. Right-click on the NFS Server icon in the status area.

   The NFS Server menu opens.

2. Select NFS Logging if it is not already selected.

3. Start the Network Event Log from the Solstice Utilities program group.

   The Network Event Log window opens.

4. Configure Network Event Log.

5. Minimize the Network Event Log.

   NFS Server events will initially be recorded and displayed in the Network Event Log window and not in the C:\LOGGING.TXT file. Only after you exit Network Event Log will C:\LOGGING.TXT be updated with the current status of NFS Server events.

To Configure Network Event Logging

1. Click the Start button, point to Programs, point to Solstice Utilities, and then click Network Event Log.

   The Network Event Log window opens.

2. On the Display menu, click Configure.

   The Network Event Log dialog box opens.

3. Set the desired options, such as how frequently network events are to be written, the name of the log file, the severity levels of the messages you want to record, and so on.

   Click Help for detailed information on each option.

4. Click Save.

5. Minimize the Network Event Log.

   Activities can be logged as they occur.

To Disable NFS Server Logging

1. Right-click the NFS Server icon in the status area.

   The NFS Server menu opens.

2. Click NFS Logging.

   The check box is no longer selected.
