[tor-relays] tor relay and syslog logging

2016-10-07 Thread Dr. Who
I'm trying to log locally (notice.log) and to a local syslog-ng server. It doesn't seem to work. I get no messages at all to my local syslog server. When I try to log some testlines manually (even as the tor system user) it seems to work. As I understood the configuration I can have multiple

Re: [tor-relays] False exit abuse from server4you
