usr/local and some afpd logfiles question

[nan0tEch]

Just a little question.
In the directory /usr/local you have lost of files marked with * for example afpd*
What do that means.

Does someone know if afpd generate logfiles and where are the stored? In var/logs i don't find anything from afpd.

The * just means "executable". Run "ls -l" and look at the permissions for the files with * and you'll see they have the 'x' permission set.

I don't where afp logs since I don't use afp, but samba logs in /var/log/samba. If afpd doesn't have a similar folder, it probably logs to /var/log/messages like everything else.
