FTP MESSAGES IN SYSLOG FILE

Greetings,

What are these messages about;

tftpd[27567]: Timeout (no requests in 10 minutes)

Is this an FTP service/daemon that is timing out?

Thanks

Kurt

Kurt,
Typically the trivial ftp daemon will wait in the background for new
requests, when active it will wait in a more active mode, then after the
specified time, will go back to idling away in a sleep state. This is the
change that you are seeing reflected in your syslog.

Best regards,
