Logging Telnet Sessions
I am trying to find the following information regarding the logging of telnet sessions within a Solaris 10 environment:
(1) How can I tell if the logging of telnet sessions is enabled on a Solaris 10 machine?
(2) Assuming that the logging of telnet sessions is not enabled, what is the procedure of enabling the logging of a telnet session?
I have alread Googled these questions, but could not find any satisfactory answers. Any and all constructive replies will be appreciated. Thanks!

We use SCO OSR5 with TermLIte to create telnet sessions.
If you accidently click X on the TermLite screen and exit the session you leave process running. I've heard of a program that will allow you to re-connect to these 'floating' sessions and then be able to carry on your session.

Hi I am working in Solaris 10 and I want to monitor logs for every telnet/ssh session that tries to connect to the server. I need these logs to be generated in a file that I can fetch using ftp.

telnet-probe
TELNET-PROBE(1) General Commands Manual TELNET-PROBE(1)
NAME
telnet-probe - lightweight telnet-like port probe
SYNOPSIS
$PCP_BINADM_DIR/telnet-probe [-c] [-v] host port
DESCRIPTION
telnet-probe allows the pmdashping(1) daemons to establish connections to arbitrary local and remote service-providing daemons so that
response time and service availability information can be obtained.
The required host and port number arguments have the same meaning as their telnet(1) equivalents.
The -c option causes telnet-probe to perform a connect(2) only. This skips the read(2) and write(2) exercise that would otherwise be done
after connecting (see below).
The -v option causes telnet-probe to be verbose while operating.
Once the telnet connection has been established, telnet-probe reads from stdin until end-of-file, and writes all the input data to the tel-
net connection. Next, telnet-probe will read from the telnet connection until end-of-file, discarding whatever data it receives. Then
telnet-probe exits.
To operate successfully, the input passed via telnet-probe to the remote service must be sufficient to cause the remote service to close
the connection when the last line of input has been processed, e.g. ending with ``quit'' when probing SMTP on port 25.
By default telnet-probe will not produce any output, unless there is an error in which case a diagnostic message can be displayed (in ver-
bose mode only) and the exit status will be non-zero indicating a failure.
PCP ENVIRONMENT
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each installation, the
file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables. The $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configura-
tion file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
DIAGNOSTICS
If telnet-probe succeeds, then 0 will be returned. If the attempt to establish a connection fails or is terminated, then a non-zero exit
status is returned.
