Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When syslog option is set to yes, syslog_enable=YES, the attemps from an
invalid user are not sent to syslog as they are sent to log file if this
option is set to no.
Below is the information found in the logs for both configurations.
log found if syslog_enable=NO,
** in /var/log/vsftpd.log
