That didnt seem to work .. I was reading on cisco's site that i might have
to edit  /etc/syslog.conf  with something like:
"local7.*                     /usr/log/cisco/ubr-syslog.log"

so ive tried both senarios...and still nothing .. is it one or the other
or both things that need to be added  or changed ??any help is VERY appreciated
