Hi there,

I have enable ftpd logging (ftpd -l), how can I forward all ftpd related message from syslog.log to a seperate log file?

Thanks,

Simon

Hi Simon:

Add the '-i' switch to the 'ftp' line in 'etc/inetd.conf' and do 'inetd -c' to reread the configuation file.

Logging will occur in '/var/adm/syslog/xferlog' for ftp activity.

See the manpages for 'ftpd(1M)' *and* 'ftpaccess(4)'. The 'ftpaccess' file can override the use of '-i'.

Regards!
