We have a non-freebsd box at work which logs stuff like... Jun 9 00:59:46 mybox tcplog: telnet connection attempt from xx.xxx.xx.xxx and Jun 9 00:59:46 mybox in.telnetd[4975]: connect from user@anotherbox I assume this last one is done with inetd. What does the -l flag to inetd do? How can I make freebsd do either or both of these?
