When machine-wide tracing is enabled, where does ODBC store logs for NETWORKSERVICE?

When I enable machine-wide tracing in odbcad32.exe, it says:


A log file will be created if none exists for every user identity under which a process using odbc is running.


However, it doesn't say where they'll be created. Presumably for normal users they'll be under %LOCALAPPDATA%, since that's the default path, but what about system users like NETWORKSERVICE, which the MS Distributed Transaction Services (msdtc.exe)?

It's using ODBC - I have a debugger attached to it and I can see it calling into the DTC XA co-ordinator, where it makes calls to SQLDriverConnect, etc. But I don't see any trace.

Where should I be looking?

I'm using Win2k8 R2 SP1.
