Solaris 10 TFTP log

I am new to Solaris 10 and am having an issue with a Solaris 10 system, which has had the TFTP Enabled and the TFTP "root" directory created with the desired files loaded into it. What I need is to review the log for the TFTP connections or attempted connections to try and verify the get/put activity. From what I can tell the logging of this information is not even turned on. If someone could please let me know how to either get to the log if it is on or turn it on if it is not I would appreciate it.

It is logging on syslog: Man Page for tftpd (all Section 8) - The UNIX and Linux Forums

The syslog is a facility where apps can send udp packets with log messages tagged with keys, and the local (or remote) syslog daemon can log them to files configured to get those keys. The cost of the logging is low and unsubscribed messages are just dropped.

You need to subscribe these keys to a log file Man Page for syslog.conf (opensolaris Section 4) - The UNIX and Linux Forums and bounce syslogd onto the new configuration with an appropriate SIGHUP kill. Some proprietary O/S and systems use various substitute syslog facilities and configuration methods, but you get the drift.
