You can try with a find command like below for any file.

find / -name "ftpusers" -print.

Yes it should be there by default

Where "man ftpusers" says it should be?

What does "man loginlog" say? (Perhaps it's
trying to tell you something.)

Hi:

> the ''loginlog'' file does not exist in my hpux server. but it exits in my sun server

...and so you have a case of one Unix not being quite the same as another...nothing new there.

*However*. If you do:

# man -k login

...which lists the man entries relative to the *keyword* "login" you will find:

# last

...which will note that if '/var/adm/wtmp' is present, a users "last" login information will be recorded. For 'su' events, however, you need to see '/var/adm/sulog'.

Regards!

All the sample files are in /usr/newconfig
The ftpusers will be in /usr/newconfig/etc/ftpd/examples

copy it to /etc/ftpd

/var/adm/wtmp - contains a record of all logins and logouts. You have to use the last command to view it.

last -R |more
last -R root |more
last -R username |more
