#6 duplicate logs

[mstudio]

arpon send log both files (syslog and arpon.log). how to send logs only to arpon.log?

[prakash ks]

I think u need to run it as daemon.
This is how i applied patch

  to avoid default logging

I solved it by directly starting the binary with the parameters like a daemon:

/usr/sbin/arpon -d -i eth1 --darpi

Thanks for your help and congratulations. Excellent project

Hi,

exactly! Please use the daemon mode.

Thanks

I'm using daemontools to invoke arpon so I can't use -d. Daemontools has their own logging, with log rotation and such which it picks up from stdout. But when I do that I still get a log in /usr/local/etc. I'm running v2.6 but I've seen rumors of a version with a -f command-line arg, I think in Debian webpages.

Can someone incorporate those changes back to SourceForge?
