Log ftpd trace to another file. Not in syslog.log.

Hi,
It is possible cofigure the ftpd to log own messages in a specific file?
Thanks.

Hi Benedetto,

Check this doc.

http://www4.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/docDisplay.do?docLocale=en_US&docId=200000072079597

How can ftp entries be routed to a file separate from syslog? DocId: UCMDSKBAN00001065

Hope this helps,
Robert-Jan

Yes - via local05 in syslog:

£ added local5 line to log ftp access to a separate file
mail.debug /var/adm/syslog/mail.log
local5.info /var/adm/syslog/local5ftp.log
*.info;mail.none;local5.none /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
*.alert /dev/console
*.alert root
*.emerg *

Then restart syslog...

You can use local.info directive in syslog.conf. also look at the ftpd options -L, -i, -o and -l

Thanks
I solved my problem.

The redirect file (for example ftp.log), it comes managed like syslog.log?
When the file reach a limit dimension, it creates a backup for a file?
Thanks.

Benedetto.
