I want to stop ftp syslog entries. I removed the "-l" option in inetd.conf and issued a "inetd -c" to reread the conf file - but I still get syslog entries for ftp transactions. I even restarted the network with /sbin/init.d/inetd stop; /sbin/init.d/inetd start.
No dice!
Any help is appreciated.

Re: stop ftp syslog entries
The -l option only disables enhanced logging. ftp logging is covered in the syslog configuration.
/etc/syslog.conf
You may want to try and shunt the ftp information into a seperate file so it stops bothering you.
perhaps add a line
ftp /var/adm/syslog/ftp.log
or
ftpd /var/adm/syslog/ftpd.log
save the file.
/sbin/init.d/syslogd stop
/sbin/init.d/syslogd start
The last part I'm sure of. That will stop and start the daemon.
The first part, i know you can do it in the syslog.conf file, but i'm not sure of the whether its ftp or ftpd

Thomas,
Even if you remove the -l option to ftpd from inetd.conf, if you have inetd running with -l option it will still log the ftp connections to /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
Disable inetd connection logging
# inetd -l
inetd -l will toggle the connection logging.
# tail /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
inetd: Connection logging disabled
#
Now try ftp

Re: stop ftp syslog entries
hai,
If you want to use another file other that syslog to store file transfer logs then go to xferlog.
If you are not using that file, by default ftp transcations will be stored on syslog only there.
Start the ftpd on inetd.conf as,
.. ftpd -i -o
inetd -c
See more on xferlog man page.
HTH.
