(RADIATOR) Log Directory unavailable

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Kevin -

You should really only use local disks for log files.

For remote logging you should use <Log SYSLOG> or <Log SQL>.

Most operators tend to use SQL databases for user definitions, 
accounting and logging.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
