      I'm using the tinc package. Works very well. I will have a lot of nodes soon, and I think that the logfile will not be large enough to hold all the status at one time. How do I increase the logfile size from 10240 bytes? All the other logfiles seem to wrap at 511488 bytes.

        Open a ssh shell.
        Goto /var/log.
        Stop tinc in the gui.
        Save tinc.log somewhere, just in case.
        Do clog -i -s 511488 tinc.log #This makes a new bigger, blank, circular log file.
        Restart tinc in the gui
        In the gui Status -> Services restart syslogd
        Profit.
        For further investigation, find out how to fix this in the installation.
