## Saving nwipes PDF certificates and log files to USB ftp or tftp servers
Nwipe creates a log file and one or more PDF certificates which show details of the disks and/or system being wiped. ShredOS creates a transfer.log and copy of the dmesg output which can be used for diagnostics. These files are automatically saved to the USB flash drive, if the user booted from a USB flash drive. Alternatively, if ShredOS has been configured, using the ketnel command line options `shredos_output="..."`, `lftp="..."` in grub.cfg to output these file to a ftp or tftp server then the PDF & log files will be sent there instead. Please be aware the the lftp option is deprecated and may be removed in a new version. `shredos_output="..."` currently supports ftp and tftp with sftp to be added in a new release. Described below are details of how you can configure ShredOS to output log and PDF files automatically to network servers.

#### What is the nwipe log file
The nwipe that is automatically launched in the first virtual terminal ALT-F1, creates a log file that contains the details of the wipe/s and a summary table that shows successfull erasure or failure. The file is time stamped within it's name. A new timestamped log file is created each time nwipe is started. The files can be found in the / directory. A example being nwipe_log_20200418-084910.txt. As of version [v2021.08.2_23_x86-64_0.34](https://github.com/PartialVolume/shredos.x86_64/releases/tag/v2021.08.2_23_x86-64_0.34) ShredOS will automatically copy the nwipe log files to the first FAT32 partition it finds, which is normally the ShredOS USB flash drive. In addition you can manually copy the log files or send them to a ftp server on your local area network. Both methods are described below starting with manually writing to a USB storage device.
