Hello gys, please is there a script or means to reduce or even stop the hourly logging of dnscrpt - proxy to syslog. There are around 5 or 6 lines relating to fetching cert / valid etc
 
Yes. See --loglevel command line key.


Cheers ryzhov_al, can advise if the enclosed command will reduce or remove logging total, I want to see logging when router or service is restarted but not on hourly basis

# dnscrypt-proxy --help
...
-m --loglevel=...
...
 
For Entware start script:
Code:
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# cat /opt/etc/init.d/S09dnscrypt-proxy
#!/bin/sh

ENABLED=yes
PROCS=dnscrypt-proxy
ARGS="--local-address=127.0.0.1:65053 --daemonize -R opendns --loglevel=5"
PREARGS=""
DESC=$PROCS
PATH=/opt/sbin:/opt/bin:/opt/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

. /opt/etc/init.d/rc.func
As a result, syslog will be clearer:
Code:
admin@RT-N66U:/tmp/home/root# tail  /tmp/syslog.log

What about for the standalone script?
 
Please add --loglevel=5 option to standalone script you are using.

ryzhov_al - Just checked my log and still seeing the hourly entry after running this command -
/jffs/bin
-m --loglevel=5

Please can you advise if am running the correct commad @ the right location?

Put it in the Wan-Start script, there is a dnscrypt command there, I placed it there and it works, you can see the process with the top command.
