(RADIATOR) radiator instances not logging to single file, more clues

[Tariq Rashid]

as discussed last week, when setting up separate radiator installations in
different directories (eg /opt/rad1, /opt/rad2, etc), a problem i cam across
was that the radiator server would not override the log file location (as
specified in a radius.cfg file) properly when this was supplied as a command
line parameter. the ref manual suggests it should. 

what was happening was that 2 log files were beign created, the standard one
at
	/var/log/radius/radiator/xxxx
and also the local one, eg
	/opt/radiator38/var/log/radiator/xxxx

closer inspection shows different items being writtent to these files. does
this help anyone find why this is happening? perhaps different log/trace
levels are being writtent to different locations?

when a radius request is processed, again, it is written to one of the
locations (the correct local one). thus the incorrect file,a lthough
created, is not written to further. why is this created?

the start-up log is presented below.
