Subject: A different kind of logging question...

I have got logging working - BUT it's not behaving the way that I thought it 
should.  I was under the impression that starting wu-ftpd with the -i and -o 
parameters would generate a listing of uploads and downloads from the system in 
a relatively straight forward fashion (as shown in Managing Internet Information
Service - O'Reilly p 86).  I am only able to get extended logging (SIZE, RETR, 
CWD, LIST, etc).

I have tried messing with these settings:

log commands anonymous
log transfer anonymous inbound,outbound

in /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess

I can get "FTP session closed" as the only logging when *not* using the log 
commands option, or full logging as described above when command logging is 
enabled.  Obvously with full command logging I'm growing some Texas-size log 
files and then have to hunt to find incoming files in the resulting mess.

Any clue as to what I'm missing?  I'm guessing that it is an incorrect entry in 
the syslog.conf file (currently "daemon.debug        /var/adm/xferlog") but it 
doesn't seem to log w/o .debug.  What would the correct entry be?

Solaris 2.4 on Sparc/LX if it matters...

The xferlog is written directly by wu-ftpd; it is not a syslog file.  ou
need to remove this from syslog.conf.  There is other info that can be 
syslog'd, but I forget what the entry is.

The xferlog file is specified in ~src/pathnames.h.  See if removing the 
xferlog file from syslog.conf makes a difference.
