+    <para>The <replaceable>AuthLog.dir</replaceable> and <replaceable>AuthLog.pag</replaceable> files record a trace of privileged
+    operations performed by the Authentication Server (<emphasis role="bold">kaserver</emphasis> process) on
+    the local machine. If the files do not exist when the Authentication
+    Server starts, it creates them in the <replaceable>/usr/afs/logs</replaceable> directory as
+    necessary.</para>
+
+    <para>The files are in binary format. To display their contents, use the <emphasis role="bold">kdb</emphasis>
+    command, which requires being logged in to the local machine as the local

+    <para>The Authentication Server is possibly unable to create these files on some
+    operating systems that AFS otherwise supports, making the <emphasis role="bold">kdb</emphasis> command
+    inoperative. See the <emphasis>IBM AFS Release Notes</emphasis> for details.</para>
