-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----<br>Hash: SHA1<br><br>Ok, so the problem hasn't gone away. I have commented out all of the lines in the torrc file for the logging thinking that would cause no logs to be created. But it seems that the logs are being created someplace else. Where would these logs be, as they have again filled up my hard drive to 100% and I need to purge them to get my system working again.
<br><br>Thanks for the assistance. The section in the torrc file relating the log files is below, and as I said I have commented out each line. Would the logs be going to the stderr or syslog as a default location. I probably should just send the logs to /dev/null just to make sure that they stop filling my hard drive.
