Thank for several people for the answer:
Christophe DIARRA
Rubén Cortegoso
Lucio Chiappetti
and others that I have lost the email, i am sorry


The solution:
(this one from DIARRA)

Edit /etc/inetd.conf and replace

ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/ftpd ftpd
by
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/ftpd ftpd -l
or
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/ftpd ftpd -ld

With '-d' you have debug logs too. Don't use the '-d' with wu-ftpd: the
user's password is logged 'in clear' (surely a bug).

Check /etc/syslog.conf: I have

daemon.debug /var/adm/syslog.dated/daemon.log
 
After editing inetd.conf and syslog.conf, run ps to find the PID of
syslogd and inetd and kill -HUP <the_PID>.

The logs are stored in /var/adm/syslog.dated/<a-date>daemon.log.


Regards,

Iwan Tamimi
