This completes the first editing pass of the man pages.  Very little
content editing has been done, but the server and client versions of
various man pages have been combined into a single man page for the
file (affects CellServDB, ThisCell, NetInfo, and NetRestrict), the
descriptions of the various AFS cache files have been combined into one
afs_cache man page, and the descriptions of the two butc log files have
been combined into one butc_logs man page.

For man pages for databases with two files, symlinks are now created on
installation for the secondary file name.

All of the man pages should now be ready for public review, additional
editing and cleanup, and content editing.

=head1 NAME
AuthLog.dir, AuthLog.pag - Log of Authentication Server privileged operations
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The F<AuthLog.dir> and F<AuthLog.pag> files record a trace of privileged
operations performed by the Authentication Server (B<kaserver> process) on
the local machine. If the files do not exist when the Authentication
Server starts, it creates them in the F</usr/afs/logs> directory as
necessary.
The files are in binary format. To display their contents, use the B<kdb>
command, which requires being logged in to the local machine as the local
superuser C<root>.
=head1 CAUTIONS
The Authentication Server is possibly unable to create these files on some
operating systems that AFS otherwise supports, making the B<kdb> command
inoperative. See the I<IBM AFS Release Notes> for details.
