Brian,
I'll assume(ack) that you're referring to FAQ #0101.
When you did this, what were the results that you
didn't like? If it didn't work, what OS are you using?
What fw version are you using. Did you verify
correctness? Did the 'new' location exist? Did you
restart the fw daemons?

Redirecting Log Files To Another Drive
Q:
How do I redirect my log files to another drive?
A:
FireWall-1 Versions 3.0b-4.0 support modifying (or
adding) the following registry entry (It is of type String):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CheckPoint\FW1\FWLOGDIR
Specify the full path name to the log directory here.
In 4.1, create the following registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CheckPoint\FW1\4.1\FWLOGDIR
Note: this directory must exist. You will need to restart the
FireWall-1 service for this to take effect. On Unix machines,
you can symbolically link the $FWDIR/log directory to
another drive. For example:
fwstop
mv $FWDIR/log $FWDIR/log.old
ln -s /path/to/new/logdir $FWDIR/log
fwstart
