in.tftpd syslog problem
SYSLINUX,

I hope someone can help me out here. I am working on a project that is using CentOS 5, and "tftp-hpa 0.42, with remap, with
tcpwrappers"

I did notice that 0.48 of in.tftpd is available with some updates to functionality and minor bugs. I saw no indication of an update
to the specific functionality I am requesting help about, therefore I have not updated it or suggested that the project update it
yet. I will bring it to their attention that there is a new version available and see if it will be included for testing in the new
version.

The issue I am having is trying to log the tftpd messages to a single file '/var/log/tftpd.log'

Here is my '/etc/xinetd.d/tftp':

service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -vs /tftpboot
disable = no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
log_type = SYSLOG local5
}



I added this to syslog.conf:

local5.* /var/log/tftpd.log


The first thing I did was add -v to the 'server_args' line and it started showing RRQ lines from the devices as they requested
files. When I added the 'log_type = SYSLOG local5' it now only logs start and stop of the system in the 'tftpd.log' file (which
also show up in the '*.info' log file) but not the verbose output that was showing up before I put in the 'log_type' declaration.

Hopefully someone can help me figure this out, it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Clifford Wagner
