/var/log/ftp.log empty

Hi folks 🙂

I search the web a lot and I found no workaround for this issue:

Using "Server Admin", I have checked all the boxes in the "FTP" "Settings" "Logging" tab.

In "/etc/syslog.conf" file, here is the ftp logging rule:
ftp.* /var/log/ftp.log

I have repaired my file permissions.

Anyway, I can’t understand why the "/var/log/ftp.log" file still empty.

As far as I remember, I have never saw that file other than empty.

So here are my questions:
– where do the logged information go? (not in "/var/log/system.log" file)
– what is the purpose of the "/var/log/ftp.log"?

I got another subsidiary question:
– is it possible to avoid the reverse ip in "ftpwho"?

Thanks for your help. Lots of interesting articles here.
