What file does <loguser $REMOTE_ADDR><userstats $REMOTE_ADDR> read and write from? I am having an issue where I have multiple servers that are round robin load balanced so the enduser could end up on a different server when they retry their query and so the loguser is different and not consistent. I would like to simlink that file across all of my servers so that it does stay consistent.

Loguser uses an internal memory structure. There is no file. If there was a file there would have to be locking which the symlink would destroy and much corruption would ensue.

so it can't be used in a multi server configuration?

You would have to use it at the load balancer to see all traffic consistently.
