I would appreciate if somebody could point me to the solution (or required
reading :) ) for loggin ftp sessions.

I want to be able to reconstruct commands issued in a ftp (remote) session
to my box (for which I have, of course, all rights).

I'm using ftpd-BSD-0.3.3-1tr on Trustix distribution of Linux.

Thanks.

man ftpd
/-l

I know if I add another -l (start the service with ftpd -D -l -l -U -S) I'll
get _successful_ get, put, append, delete, make directory, remove directory,
but instead I wanted to get _entire_ session.

The best I could do was tcpdump on the firewall to catch all the traffic
headed for port 21.

Thanks for the hint.

Did you try '-d'?
-d Debugging information is written to the syslog using LOG_FTP.

Or checked, if another ftpd, like wu-ftpd or proftpd, offer more
logging options?
