Using the LOG_AUTH facility

Hi,

I am wanting to enable logging of all ftp sessions on my Solaris 8 host. I want to at least log all ftp logins and if possible any commands that the user executes.

I have tried various settings in syslog.conf then rereading syslogd but logging still does not happen.

I have tried extensive searches on this topic but have failed to find the answer.

I would appreciate any help.

Regards,
BLP

NAME
msglog - message output collection from system startup or background applications SYNOPSIS
/dev/msglog DESCRIPTION
Output from system startup ("rc") scripts is directed to /dev/msglog, which dispatches it appropriately. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsr | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Stable | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
syslogd(1M), syslog(3C), attributes(5), sysmsg(7D) NOTES
In the current version of Solaris, /dev/msglog is an alias for /dev/sysmsg. In future versions of Solaris, writes to /dev/msglog may be directed into a more general logging mechanism such as syslogd(1M). syslog(3C) provides a more general logging mechanism than /dev/msglog and should be used in preference to /dev/msglog whenever possible. SunOS 5.10 13 Oct 1998 msglog(7D)
