I just want to improve the readability in the 2nd article on the webpage ftp -> ftp_server (joel hammer)
==== begin ==== irwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To set the local timezone into your xferlog or syslog, you need to copy the zoneinfo file to the ~ftp tree. In general, /etc/localtime is a link to /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/... But you cannot use soft-link with ftp daemons because when the ftp daemon runs, it might not be able to access /etc. The solution is to duplicate the zone file in ~ftp/etc. Taking wu-ftpd and Caldera Openlinux as an example: cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles /home/ftp/etc/localtime Change "Los_Angeles" to your own time zone reference. Now syslog would record the right time. -- The pivotal point is the "second chance", judged by another set of criteria.
