using ps aux

```auto
unbound 5197 0.0 1.3 22144 13424 ? Ss 11:51 0:10 /usr/sbin/unbound -d

```

Hence I used the command:

```auto
sudo chown unbound.unbound /mnt/dns_logs/unbound.log

```

to make sure the unbound user has access:

```auto
-rw-r--r-- 1 unbound unbound 2901 Apr 22 11:51 /mnt/dns_logs/unbound.log

```

Here is the configuration file:

```auto
server:
    #If no logfile is specified, syslog is used
    logfile: /mnt/dns_logs/unbound.log
    verbosity: 2 (2 is working)

```

Thank you for all your help. 🙂
