Hi,
I was able to update the confi file and change the Debug to 1...which in 
itself is a huge win as it took me a while to figure out how to even access 
the file. (permissions have been a bear to learn).  I have read a lot in 
the last 24 hours!
That said, I still don't know how to access any additional log 
information.  When I run the status check, it comes back with basically the 
same info...
