Q: I can't set the netboot logging_level at the command line.
I'm experiencing some problems with NetBoot and was hoping to set the logging level for the NetBoot service to high to see if it could give me some more information but every time I do this, it just responds by saying netboot:logging_level = "MEDIUM" The command i'm using is this-
sudo serveradmin settings netboot:logging_level = "HIGH"
I've managed to change settings for other services by using a similarly formatted command ('sudo serveradmin settings afp:guestAccess = no' seems to work ok for turning this off and on) but the netboot logging_level switch doesn't seem to work. I've tried this with the service switched off and starting up in safe mode. I've also tried changing this as root too, just in case it might work, but it had the same effect.
Is there something different about the netboot service that the command has to be formatted differently? I can't even find where the settings file might be kept to see if it might be a permissions issue or I could change it manually.
