By default, the log file is not accessible to other users, though members of the same group may be able to read it depending on the data directory permissions. "other users" and "members of the same group" sound a bit ambiguous to me. Would it be clearer to refer explicitly to the cluster owner? For example: ---------------------- Append the server log output to "filename". If the file does not exist, it is created. By default, only the cluster owner can access the log file. If group access is enabled in the cluster, users in the same group as the cluster owner can also read it. ---------------------- Regards, -- Fujii Masao
