Hello,

Cannot get syslog to write to file /var/log/ftp.log
Have run syslog in debug mode, it registers an ftp session, but does
not write it to log file.Also tested using 'logger -t ftpd "someones using 
Ftp" .Here's part of debug output
Also have done touch ftp.log

.........   FILE: /var/log/ppp.log
.........   UNUSED: (telnetd)
.........   UNUSED:  (ftpd)

What causes UNUSED how do i  get FILE: /var/log/ftp.log ?

Here's my syslog.conf

*.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit          /dev/console
*.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err /var/log/messages
mail.info                                       /var/log/maillog
