Where is the pro ftpd log located?


Hey, I'm running proftpd ftp server and I can't seem to find where the log is kept, does anyone know where it's located?

You'd figure it'd be proftp.log or proftpd.log or something but I can't find it anywhere...

Would anyone know?

I'm not sure, but I don't think that proftpd logs anything unless you specifically tell it what log files to use. Here is what you should add to your conf file:

TransferLog <logpath> - This logs your transfers.
ExtendedLog <logpath> - This logs everything.
SystemLog <logpath> - This logs errors.

Pretty straight-forward. Just set up the logs and add them into the conf file and you should be good to go.
