We run an anonymous FTP service on ssyx.ucsc.edu, and we like to know
which files are being transfered and by whom.  To keep track of this
information, I have made the following additions to the in.ftpd source
(these are for SunOS 4.0; the patches are easy to adapt to other versions
of the OS).  Files modified are ftpcmd.y, ftpd.c, and ftpd.8c (the manual
page).  This patch is also useful for system security purposes, as it logs
all ftp sessions; if an intruder is transferring files from your site, the
transfers will show up in the logfile.
