start-stop-daemon with redirection? (boinc / seti@home)



I use an init script which starts and stops the boinc client using the start-stop-daemon.

[...]
  start)
	echo -n "Starting $DESC: $NAME"
start-stop-daemon --start --exec $DAEMON --chuid mike --chdir /home/mike/boinc --pidfile $PIDFILE --make-pidfile --background
	echo "."
	;;
  stop)
	echo -n "Stopping $DESC: $NAME"
	start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE \
		--exec $DAEMON
	echo "."
[...]

Usually boinc ($DAEMON) sends status messages to stdout (logins, transfers, etc.).

Is there a way to redirect these messages to a file? At the moment they are simple send to /dev/null, so it seems.

Mike
