Specifying accounting settings seems to have no effect #243

Closed danielw97 closed 10 months ago

danielw97 commented 10 months ago

Hi there, I've come to this utility recently, and so far it seems to be working quite well. However one issue I'm running into is that setting "tor_AccountingMax: 325 GBytes" or similar in my vars section of yaml doesn't seem to update the torrc files on the target machines as I would expect. Is this something I'm doing incorrectly, or is there a better/alternative way to manage accounting? Thanks.

Hi danielw97,

there is no such var as "tor_AccountingMax".

Have you tried setting it via

tor_config: tor_AccountingMax: 325 GBytes

If it does not work, please use the issue submitting template.

actually:

tor_config:
  AccountingMax: 325 GBytes

Thanks very much, that fixed it. The problem was largely down to my unfamiliarity with the way the .yaml file is structured, although I think I have a better grasp of it now thanks to your comment. Appreciate the fast reply as well.
