I admit ahead of time that I saw the answer to my question posted here about
a month ago...and I also printed the answer so I would have it for future
reference.  And now I admit I lost that paper...

What is the "default" logging configuration for TCP Wrappers?  I want to
generate syslog entries for connections, and would like to avoid trying a
large number of configurations trying to find the right one...

there is a greate news search machine on the web, its located at
http://www.deja.com they store every (non-binary) newspost since 1995 in
a 300GB database. you can search for posts containing specified subjects
or words. try to search there first in such a case will save
responsetime for you!

Taken from the 7.6 wrappers readme: "By default, the wrapper logs go
to the same place as the transaction logs of the sendmail daemon. The
disposition can be changed by editing the Makefile and/or the
syslog.conf file. Send a `kill -HUP' to the syslogd after changing its
configuration file. Remember that syslogd, just like sendmail, insists
on one or more TABs between the left-hand side and the right-hand side
expressions in its configuration file."

What I do (on my RH6.1 box) is redirect these to auth (or authpriv)
and in /etc/syslog.conf send auth.* to /var/log/auth/auth and to
/dev/tty10.
