-\fB-d|--debug=debuglevel\fR
-\fIdebuglevel\fR is an integer
-from 0 to 10. The default value if this parameter is
-not specified is zero.

-The higher this value, the more detail will be
-logged to the log files about the activities of the
-server. At level 0, only critical errors and serious
-warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for
-day to day running - it generates a small amount of
-information about operations carried out.
-
-Levels above 1 will generate considerable
-amounts of log data, and should only be used when
-investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are designed for
-use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log
-data, most of which is extremely cryptic.

-Note that specifying this parameter here will
-override the log
