I'm no proftp expert but I imagine one of the IP addresses listed is of the FTP client accessing your server, the IP address is of the network port that proftpd is servicing on your server. If you do not recognise one of the IP addresses as one from your system then perhaps you have an unwanted visitor?

The /var/adm/messages in Solaris seem to log more system messages/errors compared to /var/log/messages in Linux.
I checked the log level in Linux and they seem OK.
Is there any other log file that contains the messages or is it just that Linux doesn't log great many things? (2 Replies)
