Ruben,

From the docs for proftpd:

"By default, proftpd will log via syslog(3), using the daemon facility (auth for some logging), at various levels: err, notice, warn, info, and debug (debugging is done at this syslog level). The location of the server's log files in this case is determined by your /etc/syslog.conf configuration. "

"If the site administrator wants to have proftpd log its messages to a file rather than going through syslogd, the SystemLog configuration directive is the one to use. There is only one such file kept for the entire daemon. See the ServerLog directive for keeping a similar log on a per-vhost basis. "

The docs go on to say that if the system admin opts to use the SystemLog directive, the default (syslog, auth and authprive) will automaticly be disabled. Logging to syslog is the default.

CHeers,

-Grant

Hi all,

I am trying to get Bruteblock working on FreeBSD 6.2 and hav e run into a
snag.

It appears that Proftpd is not sending log detail to the auth or authpriv
facility.

I have a simple Proftpd setup, with the SysLog directive completely
removed, and according to the man, it is supposed to be sending to authpriv.

Do I get this straight?
You have the syslog directive removed and still expect it to use syslog?
One of us needs coffee ;)

Also, I have the bruteblock syslog.conf setup as per the manual as well.

Proftpd and Bruteblock were both setup from ports.

Has anyone ran into a similar issue? If so, how did you get around it?

-Grant
