Problem Description:
when user uses anonymous ftp to log into a system log messges are not logged
even though system logging is turned on.

INSTALL: 

1. mv /usr/etc/syslogd /usr/etc/syslogd.FCS

2. copy the new syslogd version that matches your system arch to /usr/etc
   and make sure the premissions match as follows:

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root     staff       32768 Jul 10 16:29 syslogd*

3. This new syslogd has a new command line option (-a) with which you
   can specify the second unix socket for logging. Therefore you will
   need to change the syslog entry in /etc/rc.local to:

syslogd -a /ftp/dev/log

where "/ftp/dev/log" is a file on your system

4. make a entry in /etc/syslog.conf to enable ftp logging:

i.e.

daemon.debug<T><T><T>	/var/adm/ftplog

where <T> is a tab

5. in /etc/inet.conf make sure you have a line like this:

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

6. Now it is best to reboot the system so that all the changes get read.
