VPN activity verbose logging...

Hallo!

Could you share some knowledge with me please?
What is "Use verbose logging" option in Advanced settings of a VPN Service?
Where are the VPN activity standard and verbose logs are located?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.2)

“Use Verbose logging” if you want to capture more detailed log information in your VPN session. This may be useful if you are troubleshooting a problem with your VPN connection.

The log file is located

/var/log/ppp.log

To monitor this log when you engage a vpn connection open your terminal and use the command

tail -f /var/log/ppp.log
