Hi,

The ftp session should show in the lastlog output:

After logging in:
druuna ftpd26479 localhost.locald Thu Aug 26 11:27 still logged in

After logging out:
druuna ftpd26479 localhost.locald Thu Aug 26 11:27 - 11:29 (00:02)

There should also be one or more ftp logfiles present. Probably in /var/log, but this could depend on how the ftp server is set up.

Hope this helps.
