Log files / Navigating on Commandline

When you have problems with your system, you will need to have to search through the log files. Maybe you find the problem for you own, or have to search for help in a forum. In both cases it's necessary to study the log files. Usually the location of logfiles on Linux systems is /var/logs. Also on Fedora (Vortexbox).
Some useful log files are:

• When upgrading vortexbox, the logfile you see on the webinterface is located under:
  /var/log/vbupgrade.log
  
  
• Any loginfo of the Squeezebox server is stored in the sbs log-files. There are a couple of them located under:
  /var/log/squeezeboxserver
  These log files were very useful for me when I had the problem with the Youtube Plugin.
  
  
• If you configure a samba share, and the config file has an error, you can see the log in this file:
  /var/log/samba

 
This brings me to an idea for the next post. A short simple guide, how to add a samba share to your vortexbox.
