I have ftpd to log to its own file like this (in /etc/syslog.conf)
!ftpd
*.* /var/log/ftpd
The ftpd logs to a facility called ftpd. A call to openlog() like:
openlog("ftpd", LOG_PID | LOG_NDELAY, LOG_FTP);
starts this off. If you look at the sources for upsd you should be able to make
it log to a device of your liking. By changes in the openlog()-function.
