>Description:
If you want to enable logging of connections for TCP wrappers, you need
to read the README file in the source distribution *and* the patch file
in the ports area to see what class (auth) and priority (probably info)
the log messages to syslogd will have.  Then you can adjust the 
/etc/syslog.conf file.  Perhaps we should mention this in the message
displayed when the tcp_wrappers package is installed and/or include a
sample line in the /etc/syslog.conf file.

It might also be appropriate to choose a standard log file for messages
such as those from tools like tcp_wrappers.  A sample syslog.conf line
for tcp_wrappers logging is enclosed:

auth.info                                       /var/log/tcplog

This line was included just beneath the mail.info line in the syslog.conf
file.

State-Changed-Why:  
TCVP Wrappers is now in the base system.  Tcpd is superseded by 
inetd with built-in wrapper support.  The inetd(8) manual page 
describes correctly the facility on which logging takes 
place.
