[OS X TeX] OT: log from Acrobat 7.0

[David Watson]

The drawback is that you won't capture the default notice level log  
entries. It really all depends on whether you actually need to use  
you log for any specific purposes. If not, no problem.

You should probably try to sudo with the wrong password just to make  
sure the failed login attempts are logged.
