> Still open: > > How to best separate the tor log files from both instances? You can either 1) configure tor to log to specific log files (I wouldn't take that path since handling filesystem permissions properly for every instance is just messy [logrotate...]) or 2) you stick with the default configuration (all tor instances send their logs to syslog) and you tell syslog to create per-instance logfiles. 3) or keep them in a common file and use grep to look for the specific relevant instance. On Debian tor instances tag their log entries with "Tor-<instancename>" by default. Something not available in vanilla tor 0.2.7.x (but will be in 0.2.8.x). With that in mind you can go and tell syslog what to do: :syslogtag, startswith, "Tor-tor2[" /var/log/tor/tor2.log Note: The actual tag looks like Tor-tor2[1555] where 1555 is the process ID (PID), that is the reason you can*not* simply do :syslog, isequal, "Tor-tor2" /var/log/tor/tor2.log Note2: That instance specific log file will "loose" the first ~10 log entries since they are not tagged. https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual-dev.html.en: > SyslogIdentityTag tag > > When logging to syslog, adds a tag to the syslog identity such that > log entries are marked with "Tor-tag".
