Thanks Annelise!

Putting the following into the syslog.conf worked:

!ftpd
 *.*

The "ftp.*" as indicateded in the documentation does NOT work.


Note:
The two -l's, i.e., ftpd -l -l in inetd.conf add more detail to the log
(right down to the file and command level).

One "-l" just shows the basic login details.

Regards,

	- Scott
