According to the RT TCP/IP book SC23-2005-1, the -i option to the
ftpd command turns on logging.  All logging of ftp traffic.

Edit the /etc/inetd.conf file, and alter the line that reads:
ftp	    stream	tcp	nowait	root	/usr/lpp/tcpip/etc/ftpd	ftpd

to read:
ftp	    stream	tcp	nowait	root	/usr/lpp/tcpip/etc/ftpd	ftpd -i

and issue a kill -HUP to the inetd process. to re-read the config file.

Logging is performed via the syslog function call, and the /etc/syslog.conf
file will have to be altered to actually save the logged data.
Unfortunately, the book does not indicate the facility and error level
that ftpd uses to perform it's logging, so a litte experimentation will
have to be performed.
