To log to a file, your Log configuration directive in torrc should look
like this:

    Log warn file /home/chris/tor.log

Obviously, user chris can write to that file, and I run Tor as chris.

If you log via syslog, to get syslog to separate debugs from notices,
edit your /etc/syslog.conf as specified in the syslog.conf(5) man page.
