Anonymous FTP Logging

2007-12-25 8:30:00

Thank you all very much for the responses. I apologize for the delay in the

summary.

-The majority of the recommendiations pointed me to the wuarchive version of ftpd.

It is located on wuarchive.wustl.edu in directory /packages/wu-ftpd. It was

also recommended that I pickup log_tcp-5.1.

-Another manager recommended tcp_wrappers program from the Eindhoven University

Technology in The Netherlands.

-Yet another said:

These are 4 versions that have enhanced logging or can be modified

        to enable logging:

        wuarchive.wustl.edu (128.252.135.4) /packages/ftpd.wuarchive.shar

        isy.liu.se (130.236.1.3) /pub/ftpd.tar.Z

        ftp.adelaide.edu.au (129.127.40.3) /pub/4.3/ftpd-sirius.tar.Z

        ftp.cs.widener.edu (147.31.254.132) /pub/src/widener/ftpd-wid.tar.Z

- Another recommendation was to modify the existing Sun configuration

The stock Sun ftpd will log some information if you add the "-l"

        flag in /etc/inetd.conf:

        ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/etc/in.ftpd in.ftpd -l

        Also enable syslogd by adding:

        daemon.info /var/adm/syslog

        to "/etc/syslog.conf".

        

- I could have also extracted the information from the FAQ (sorry for not

  looking there in the first place)

  

    QUESTION NUMBER 24

    

 In summary, I have decided to go with the wuarchive.
