While I could have phrased my question better, it was an honest question. I was scratching my head thinking well maybe he wanted people to install uiScribe which would then install scribe? I'm the office pedant where I work, documents for release that come through me rarely escape unscathed...
That DANG SUN!!!
As one of the "developers" who disappeared for a while and am only occsionally seen here now, a lot happened in my life. Note that the scare quotes around "developers" only applies to myself, I would never call myself a developer. People such as yourself are true...
THANK YOU!!! I greatly appreciate this move, I truly felt bad about effectively abandoning scribe, but there are too many other pressures in my life. I hope the community can keep it going.
THANK YOU!!!!
I was trying to find time to push one last update and ask for someone to take over scribe. I'm happy to see this more actively maintained by others.
Scribe was a fun learning project for me, and I apologize to the community for abandoning it without any notice. Things just...
From scribe's point of view, everything is working "as intended". The blocking directories are in /jffs where the system thinks they belong (hence the nvram pointing to /jffs).
As an aside, scribe does not write to nvram. In fact, it doesn't even use nvram to figure out where the syslog.log...
I'm back (sort of).
I apologize for my extended absense. What was originally supposed to be a 4 to 5 month remodel stretched to 9 months. Partly our fault ("while you're here, why don't you ...") and partly our city's fault (2+ months for a straightforward permit). Because of the network...
There is none. syslog or syslog-ng is the facility that parses the log messages from the kernel, programs, etc. into a file (syslogd) or files (syslog-ng). You would need to create a filter similar to the A00remote filter in /opt/share/syslog-ng/examples to pass every entry to a single file...
Unfortunately, I am sans router for probably the next 3 to 4 months. We are having extensive work done on our home and are living in an Air B&B, possibly until the end of the year (longer, if the city keeps dragging its heels on permits). The Air B&B provides WiFi, not a direct internet...
The syslog-ng.conf file that scribe installs does have the @include “/opt/etc/syslog-ng.d/“ line near the top.

The filter file "expandlog" that scribe puts in /opt/share/syslog-ng/examples will create a log (/opt/var/log/expanded-syslog.log) with every log message expanded into its component parts. Simply copy it to /opt/etc/syslog-ng.d and then "scribe restart". The file will get very large very...
I wouldn't say that's the consensus; a modern SSD (NOT a USB flash drive) is really just as reliable as spinning rust, and possibly moreso than spinning rust (c.f. https://www.backblaze.com/blog/ssd-drive-stats-mid-2022-review/). Backblaze uses SSDs for their boot drives, which also store...
I thought (and hey, I could be wrong) that was only an issue with flash drives plugged into the port? I've been running an external SSD with ~12" cord in USB 3 mode forever without any issues.
That's wild. Interestingly enough, I started having random reboots and lockups with my AC86U a couple months ago and I finally "solved" it by buying a new router(!) I went through similar as you with my AC86U first, factory reset, install everything from scratch, etc., and everything was good...
