tinc - logging

[Yazeed Fataar]

Hi

How do I enable logging in tincd to autolog to syslog file. I know how to
run it from runtime by using this command.

tincd -n mynet --logfile=/var/log/tinc.mynet.log

But how do I include in startup script?

This is the default startup script which was created and I believe it reads
the "nets.boot" file.

"Output Omitted"
root at ubuntusrv:~# cat /etc/init.d/tinc
#! /bin/sh

#                    These names must be valid directory names under

test -f $DAEMON || exit 0

[ -r /etc/default/tinc ] && . /etc/default/tinc

foreach_net() {
  if [ ! -f $NETSFILE ] ; then
    echo "Please create $NETSFILE."
    exit 0
  fi
  echo -n "$1"
  shift
  egrep '^[ ]*[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+' $NETSFILE | while read net args; do
    echo -n " $net"
    "$@" $net $args
  done
  echo "."
}
