In the FM page I did a search on log. Maybe this is what you want. The -L <filename> or --logfile <filename> option (keyword: set logfile) allows you to redirect status messages emitted while detached into a specified logfile (follow the option with the logfile name). The logfile is opened for append, so previous messages aren't deleted. This is primarily useful for debugging configurations. Awesome what resources Debian has for troubleshooting our boxen.
