Dear Managers,
My questio was about why, even when the /etc/syslog.conf may include
the apropriate configuration, syslog does not log the telnet, rlogin
,etc session.
The answer is because telnetd, rlogind, etc were not programmed in
order to use syslog to log their connections so you have to use
another program to this like the known tcp wrappers. Why there
daemons does not use directly syslog to log their connections?
I don't know

Dear Managers,
I want to log all connection to our AS4100/DU4.0D, for this I modified
/etc/syslog.conf and now it looks like this:
*.notice /var/adm/syslog.dated/notice
*.debug /var/adm/syslog.dated/debug
*.info /var/adm/syslog.dated/info
I thought that with this configuration syslogd would log the telnet's
or rlogin's to this machine but was not so. This kind of things fall
into the daemon syslog facility as far as I know and with the asterisk I
am including it and with priority debug, for the second line above. So
what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance,
