MottS Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Hi all I'd like my ftp server (proftpd) to write some log file .. like the Access and Error file for Apache. Now whenever someone log in and get files nothing is written into /var/log/proftpd .. anoying ! So what do I have to add in the config file? Thx MottS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anon Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 Its a while since i used proftp (use pure-ftp now) but as i remember you need to un-comment this line in you conf : # Record all loginsExtendedLog /var/log/proftpd.auth_log AUTH auth<<<(or whatever goes here) Don't hold me to it though, my memory is getting worse!!

I put the following in my /etc/proftpd.conf file and it started to log what I wanted .. ExtendedLog /var/log/proftpd/ProFTPd.read.log READ ExtendedLog /var/log/proftpd/ProFTPd.write.log WRITE Here is the man page of ExtendedLog for other to use .. http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/lin...xtendedLog.html Thanks again !
